Question
My baby has been born for half a month now. The baby had a jaundice level of 19 three days after birth and was hospitalized for blue light treatment, which stabilized. Recently, it has climbed back up to 16. What should I do?
Answer
The baby is now half a month old. The jaundice level was 19 three days after birth, and it was stabilized with blue light treatment. Recently, it has decreased again. The decrease in the jaundice level may indicate pathological jaundice. It is necessary to go to the hospital for a detailed examination and treatment, as it could have an impact on the baby’s body. Give the baby more water to drink.
