Question
Why would a one-month-old baby have elevated jaundice levels?
Answer
Pathological jaundice may be caused by liver dysfunction, hemolytic reactions, or bile duct obstruction. Before treatment, it is necessary to determine the cause. It could be due to calcium deficiency, so it is recommended to supplement the baby with calcium-rich foods such as fish, shrimp shells, seaweed, and bone broth. At the same time, consume vitamin D-rich foods like pork liver, lamb liver, and beef liver to promote calcium absorption.
