What should I do if the jaundice value is high?

Patient's question:

Expert: I have a question. My family had two sets of twin girls born on the 10th of this month, at 36 weeks and one day. Should they be considered premature infants? I was discharged from the hospital two days ago, and today I went to the hospital to check for jaundice. (For the older child) The average jaundice level is 15.5, which is a bit high. Expert, how soon after birth can the children be fed? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

This situation can be treated with many options, but Baole'an is better. According to your description, Baole'an can be used to treat this condition. Try to breastfeed as much as possible and pay attention to keeping your abdomen warm. The medication you have chosen can be taken as per the instructions on the packaging. For jaundice, you can appropriately give glucose water. Monitor the child's condition closely and consult a pediatrician for follow-up if necessary. Pay attention to the baby's overall health and seek medical attention promptly if there are any signs of discomfort.
