Patient's question:
Born two or three days later, it was found that the skin was yellow, and the doctor said it was high jaundice. When discharged after three days, it was 16.9. Medications were prescribed to be taken at home. Now, five days have passed, and there has been no improvement. The current test result is over 20 points. The doctor said it is because the mother is type O blood, the baby is type B, and they are breastfeeding without exposure to sunlight. Currently, they are at Yiyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital.Doctor's answer:
If it is physiological jaundice, it will resolve on its own. If it is pathological jaundice, treatment to reduce jaundice is required, such as phototherapy. If there is no significant improvement after a week, it is likely pathological.
