Patient's question:
The baby is 1 month and 2 days old and had a jaundice test result of 175. Is that very high? Also, the baby's stool is yellow and long-shaped, and it can be broken by hand when pressed. What is the reason for this? Thank you. 20121217, consultationDoctor's answer:
Most babies will experience jaundice again around 3 days after birth, which is physiological jaundice. It usually subsides in about 14 days and does not require any special treatment. The prognosis is also good. If jaundice reappears within 24 hours after birth, if the jaundice is severe and progresses rapidly, and if it recurs after subsiding, it may be considered pathological jaundice. If you are unsure about your baby's condition, it is recommended to see a doctor to avoid delaying the treatment./The above suggestions are for the question "Is 175 a high level for jaundice measurement?" It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
