Question
The test result shows negative for antibody screening. The anti-A titer is 1:128. The book says that Yin Chen, Gancao, Shudahuang, and Huangqin can be used for treatment, but some people suggest not to self-medicate. What should I do?
Answer
It is advisable to seek a TCM doctor for a differential diagnosis and treatment, and to prescribe an appropriate formula. The formulas in the book are fixed, but the medication should be adjusted according to the condition of each patient. The child’s condition is troubled by newborn hemolytic disease, so parents should take their child to the doctor immediately, avoid blind medication, and closely monitor the child’s condition to provide timely treatment assistance.
