Question

How should one treat jaundice in newborns after vaccination?

Answer

Before treatment, it is necessary to determine the cause, as pathological jaundice may be related to liver function damage, hemolytic reactions, or bile duct obstruction. Generally, if the body temperature does not exceed 38 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods such as rubbing the body with alcohol or wiping the face and forehead with warm water can be used. However, if the body temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, consider taking ibuprofen suspension or naproxen as fever-reducing medication.
