Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. Could you please tell me what causes high total bilirubin levels in newborns?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be due to liver function damage. The essence of liver function damage is the degeneration and necrosis of liver cells. This inevitably leads to the leakage of enzymes from liver cells into the blood, a decline in the ability of liver cells to synthesize proteins and gluconeogenesis, and the retention of bilirubin and ammonia in the blood that needs to be processed by the liver. It is recommended to conduct a detailed examination of liver function and the hepatitis B five-item test. Hello, if your teeth do not show any malformations, it should be a normal condition, and there is no need to worry.
