What are the treatment methods for galactosemia?

Patient's question:

Jaundice not subsiding, poor feeding, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, light yellow or grayish-white stools.

Doctor's answer:

The diagnosis at that time was a doctor's guess, or had they checked blood galactose? The incidence of this disease in Chinese people is very low. Our hospital has not yet diagnosed any patients to date. The incidence rate in Taiwan is 1 in 380,000. The patient has already died, and the cause of death remains undetermined. If it is this disease, there is a 25% recurrence risk with each pregnancy, which is currently undetectable in adults. The child is troubled by galactosemia, so parents must take the child to seek medical treatment immediately to avoid blindly using small advertisements for drugs. Rational medication is needed. For parents, it is important to observe changes in their child's symptoms and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
