Question
The newborn is 7 days old and their bilirubin level has reached 15. What are the methods for improvement?
Answer
After the newborn is 3 days old, if they exhibit jaundice throughout their body, it is advisable to undergo a liver function test, which may indicate a liver issue. Additionally, it is important to avoid overexertion and ensure adequate rest. If there are no major concerns, attention should be paid to nutritional supplementation, eating smaller meals more frequently, to prevent liver problems caused by malnutrition.
