Is it physiological jaundice or pathological jaundice

Patient's question:

The skin around both eyes and the chin on both sides has a slightly yellowish-blue hue, just two days after birth.

Doctor's answer:

Disease Analysis: Physiological jaundice appears 3 days after birth. As long as diet and bowel movement volume can be increased, it mostly returns to normal within 2 weeks.
Recommendation: If jaundice has not subsided after 2 weeks, it should be pathological jaundice and requires medication for treatment, such as Yinzhihuang Granules, Jinduangpi Tablets, etc., to alleviate jaundice.
