What should I do if my baby's jaundice doesn't go away?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. What should I do if my baby's jaundice doesn't go away?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if jaundice appears one month later, it is usually pathological jaundice, and you should go to the hospital for a timely review. At the same time, you can appropriately give the child some jaundice-reducing traditional Chinese medicine, Yinqihuang Granules, and drink some glucose water. Stop breastfeeding for three days, and if the weather is good, expose the child to sunlight and wait for further observation. It may be related to calcium deficiency, so you need to get more sunlight and can also take pediatric fish liver oil drops and calcium gluconate oral solution for treatment. In severe cases, vitamin D3 injection may be required.
