Patient's question:
Hello, my baby is 24 days old today, but his face is quite yellow, and there's also some yellowing around his eyes. The baby is eating and drinking normally, and everything else is fine.Previous Treatment and Effects:
I consulted a doctor, who gave the baby 50% glucose to drink, but his condition hasn't improved yet.
What kind of help is needed:
Why is the baby's face and eyes yellow, and what should be done to treat it?
Doctor's answer:
The baby's jaundice is mainly caused by excessive internal damp-heat, which is related to the high temperature in the womb... You can give the baby some Yinzhihuang Granules appropriately to clear heat and remove dampness. Additionally, the baby's mother can steep Chrysanthemum, Frangipani, and White Mulberry roots in water to drink as a substitute for tea, helping the baby eliminate jaundice through breast milk. The baby's mother should avoid spicy and fried foods.This is the advice for the question "A newborn who is 20 days old has a yellow face and slightly yellow corners of the eyes—what should be done?" I hope it helps. Wishing you good health!
