What should I do if the baby's jaundice is a bit high?

Patient's question:

A child just born doesn't know what's going on, there are always red spots on their body, and they are spitting up milk. Please ask how to deal with slightly high jaundice in the baby.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, neonatal jaundice can be either physiological or pathological. Physiological jaundice typically resolves in full-term infants within 7-14 days and in preterm infants within 2-3 weeks. You can follow up regularly for check-ups, and if necessary, blue light treatment can be administered. Wishing you good health.
Children affected by neonatal diseases should be taken to the hospital immediately for treatment to avoid various misunderstandings. Timely and symptomatic treatment is essential. For parents, it is important to provide their children with enough care and attention, and to do everything possible to help them receive timely medical treatment.
