Patient's question:
My baby is 42 days old. A few days ago, I took her to the hospital for a check-up and found that her jaundice level was a bit high. She took Yinzhihuang oral liquid for four days, and her complexion noticeably improved. I thought it had mostly gone away, so I stopped giving it to her. But in the past two days, I noticed her looking a bit yellow again. What could be the reason? Is it related to breastfeeding? Should I stop breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you. The baby has high jaundice, and I don't know the current value. The baby's weight gain is how much, it is recommended to check liver function. If the liver function is normal, and the baby's weight gain is good, and the stool color is normal, consider breast milk jaundice. Stop breastfeeding for 72 hours, and if the jaundice subsides well. The above is advice on the question "My baby is 42 days old, a few days ago I went to the hospital to check the jaundice a bit high, and ate 4 days of gentian and coptis." I hope it helps you, wish you health!
