Does the direct bilirubin of physiological jaundice in infants increase?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Jaundice in children can be classified into two types: pathological and physiological. If jaundice appears after 24 hours of birth and the child is feeding well and in good spirits, it is more likely to be physiological jaundice. If jaundice occurs within 24 hours of birth and is accompanied by symptoms such as crying, it is more likely to be pathological jaundice.
