What should be done if the total bilirubin level of a newborn is high?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is more likely to be physiological. The possibility of blood type incompatibility is high. If the baby is in good spirits and feeding normally, there is no need to worry excessively. With treatment, it can recover quickly. To confirm neonatal jaundice, severe cases can be treated with blue light therapy. Chinese herbal medicine, such as Chong Chen, Zhizi, and Da Huang decoction, can be effective.
