What symptoms does kernicterus bring?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, Kernicterus, also known as bilirubin encephalopathy, refers to the condition where unconjugated bilirubin passes through the blood-brain barrier during neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, damaging the central nervous system. The basal ganglia, hypothalamus, and globus pallidus, among other neural nuclei, become yellowed, leading to cerebral palsy.
