What to do if a 34-day-old baby’s face turns yellow? A female baby, 34 days old. The face has been yellow for about 15 days. No symptoms, what’s causing the yellow face? How to treat it?

Answer

After a child is born, the skin may turn yellow again within two days, a condition known as physiological jaundice, which usually disappears within two weeks and twenty days. Your child is already 34 days old and has yellowish facial skin, so there is a possibility of pathological jaundice. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for timely monitoring of the jaundice index. Treatment should be adopted based on the detailed examination results.
