How long does it take for newborn jaundice to be treated with blue light?

Patient's question:

The 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 long it takes for newborn jaundice to be treated with blue light.

Doctor's answer:

General physiological jaundice usually resolves within two weeks, but your baby's jaundice hasn't subsided yet. It can only be blamed on the adults not providing the baby with proper treatment. I suspect your baby is in good spirits and appetite, which is common in exclusively breastfed infants. However, the baby may be affected by a neonatal disease, so the mother must take the child to a doctor immediately for treatment. Avoid using blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it's crucial to pay timely attention to the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive prompt medical treatment.
