Help needed: How can the jaundice be reduced?
Doctor's answer:
The baby still has jaundice after a month, so it cannot be considered physiological jaundice. It is recommended to take the baby to the hospital to check the bilirubin levels to determine if it is pathological jaundice caused by a disease. Blue light therapy is a simple and effective method for treating neonatal jaundice.Hello, the condition you described has already exceeded the period for physiological jaundice, so it is fading slowly and requires reasonable medical treatment. This type of jaundice is called pathological jaundice, and there are many causes for it, such as liver and biliary diseases or hemolysis.
The symptoms you described show that the baby's sclera has already returned to normal color, which is a clear sign of improvement. However, the other parts have not yet faded. Please go to the hospital as soon as possible to test the jaundice index and use the data to guide the treatment. Generally, pathological jaundice can be completely cured with proper treatment, but do not wait.
