Question
Does a full-month-old baby with jaundice affect vaccination? My child just gave birth and doesn’t know what’s wrong. There are always red spots on their body, and they also vomit.
Answer
There’s no need to worry about not being able to receive the BCG and Hepatitis B vaccines on time. It won’t have any impact. You can go for the vaccinations a few days later, take good care of the baby, and let the mother rest and recover from childbirth first. The baby can undergo blue light therapy. If there’s difficulty hearing, it might be due to water, cotton swabs, or Erythromycin ointment blocking the outer ear canal. You should consult an otolaryngologist to examine and clean the outer ear canal, which should restore hearing ability.
