Patient's question:
The whites of the eyes are yellow, otherwise everything is normal. What could be the reason? Besides, the baby needs to have bowel movements several times a day, and the stool color is normal. The baby is only 10 days old.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on your description, it is considered that the baby has neonatal jaundice. Physiological jaundice in newborns usually reappears around 2-3 days, peaks between 4-5 days, and naturally fades away in full-term infants within 7-14 days, with generally good condition. It is recommended that you do not worry too much and take the baby to the hospital to measure the bilirubin level. If the value is slightly lower than the normal range, phototherapy may be required. I hope the answer to your question "What is the reason for yellow eyes and white sclera?" can help you. Thank you.
