Daughter is one month old, jaundice is 12.7, what to do

Patient's question:

A baby born in June started showing about 4 days after birth, and it hasn't gone away yet.

Doctor's answer:

Jaundice starts from the head and fades from the feet, with the eyes being the first to turn yellow and the last to return to normal. Therefore, you can start by observing the eyes. If you're unsure how to check, it's recommended to press any part of the body. As long as the pressed skin area turns white, it's fine; if it remains yellow, that's something to pay attention to.
