Patient's question:
Just three days after birth, jaundice appeared.Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be due to liver function damage. The essence of liver dysfunction is the degeneration and necrosis of liver cells. This inevitably leads to the leakage of enzymes from liver cells into the blood, a decline in the ability of liver cells to synthesize proteins and gluconeogenesis, and the retention of bilirubin, ammonia, and other substances that require liver processing in the blood. It is recommended to conduct a detailed liver function test and the hepatitis B surface antigen, antibody, core antibody, and e-antigen test. The child is threatened by neonatal diseases, so parents must take the child to seek medical treatment promptly to avoid various misunderstandings. Symptomatic treatment should be administered in a timely manner. For parents, it is essential to provide the child with enough care and attention, and to do everything possible to help the child receive timely medical treatment.
