Patient's question:
The baby is now 17 days old and has slightly high jaundice. The doctor prescribed Yinzhihuang Granules and also recommended taking Shuangbizhigan Sanmenhuo Jiaoren Rongkang Capsules concurrently. Yesterday morning, after taking one dose, the baby started having diarrhea, which was watery and yellowish like butter. The stomach was also making gurgling sounds. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is likely that the nausea and vomiting are caused by Yinzhihuang Granules. Pay attention to keeping your abdomen warm and avoid exposure to cold. Then, carefully observe for a day to see if there are no further episodes. If nausea and vomiting still occur, discontinue the Yinzhihuang Granules and continue to monitor closely. If necessary, consider getting a routine stool test. The above advice is for the question "How to handle jaundice in a newborn who is 17 days old?" and is hoped to be helpful to you.
