Question
My baby is 33 days old and the jaundice has not yet subsided. Today, I administered the vaccine, and later during the health check, jaundice was measured. The forehead is over 10 points, the abdomen is over 9 points, and the face is the highest at over 12 points. What should I do? I’ve already given the vaccine; am I worried?
Answer
Normally, if a baby’s jaundice has not subsided by one month of age, it is not recommended to administer the third dose of the hepatitis B vaccine. I suggest you don’t worry too much; in this case, vaccination may either alleviate the jaundice or interfere with the vaccine’s effectiveness. Actively treat the jaundice. The above is a suggestion for the question ‘Baby at 33 days old, jaundice has not yet subsided,’ and I hope it helps you. Wishing you health!
