How to handle neonatal jaundice after 20 days?

A newborn is 10 days old and has an abnormal yellow skin tone. After being tested with a jaundice meter, the index shows 10. Inquire about the treatment method.

Your baby has neonatal jaundice, typically with transcutaneous measured data below 10; if blood is drawn to test the level of bilirubin in the blood, the normal value is usually below 205umol/l (12mg/dl). The normal total bilirubin level for a 30-day-old infant is 1.7～17.1umol/l (0.1～1.0mg/dl). Direct bilirubin is 0～6.8umol/l (0～0.4mg/dl), and indirect bilirubin is 1.7～10.2umol/l (0.1～0.6mg/dl). Urinalysis is necessary to determine the true bilirubin level.

Neonatal jaundice is a condition characterized by elevated bilirubin levels in the blood, and it is recommended to seek medical advice promptly to avoid delaying treatment.
