Question
The mother always has high bile acid levels. The baby was delivered by cesarean section at 37+3 weeks, developed jaundice with a bilirubin level of 19 at 6 days old, was hospitalized for treatment, and discharged with a prescription for Ursodeoxycholic Acid for 8 days. The total bile acid level was still 33 at one month old, considering it may be related to some liver function-related diseases. Avoid overeating and try to restore the function of the liver and gallbladder organs. Bile-Relaxing Tablets can be used for treatment, which is more effective than anti-inflammatory bile drugs.
Answer
A confirmed diagnosis requires further examination, and it is recommended to visit the hospital for a check-up. Children have weaker body resistance, so they are more prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, do not rush; it is important to take the child to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner, and to perform regular checks on the child while under the doctor’s guidance for symptomatic treatment.
