Why does infant jaundice occur

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has appeared with this series of conditions, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will get worse. Please ask why infants have jaundice

Doctor's answer:

If the child has high bilirubin, it is recommended to go to the hospital for jaundice treatment. Blue light therapy and taking Yinzhihuang oral liquid can be used synergistically. Persist in treatment and lower the bilirubin level to below 18 for it to be relatively safe.
Hello, neonatal jaundice is divided into physiological and pathological types. Physiological jaundice in full-term infants subsides within 7-14 days, while in premature infants, it takes 2-3 weeks.
You can have regular follow-up checks, and blue light treatment can be administered if necessary. Wishing you good health.
