Patient's question:
My baby is 13 months old and has slightly yellowish skin under the eye bags. The urine is also a bit yellow, but I think it's due to the heat causing the urine discoloration. The stool is normal, and she has been breastfed since birth. However, her father is a hepatitis B carrier.Doctor's answer:
Urine yellow is not necessarily caused by a stomachache, because drinking too little water for a long time, or sweating a lot while drinking less water, can lead to urine concentration and result in yellow urine again. If the lower eyelid skin is yellow, it's necessary to rule out the possibility of anemia and also pay attention to whether it's due to eating too much carrots, oranges, etc. Since children are usually vaccinated against hepatitis B at birth, they are rarely infected with hepatitis B, but the possibility of infection cannot be ruled out.1. Give the child more water to see if the yellow urine can be resolved.
