What are the treatments for newborn jaundice?

Patient's question:

The baby is 26 months old and not feeling well. I can feel that the baby is sick. Please ask: What are the treatment methods for neonatal jaundice?

Doctor's answer:

A full-term newborn's jaundice should completely subside two weeks after birth. The child still has jaundice, so the first step is to go to the hospital for a bilirubin test.
Breastfed babies can have more frequent bowel movements, but also more frequent urination, with steady weight gain, which is mostly considered physiological. Nausea and vomiting are also normal. The rash on the face is likely eczema.
Do not feel any stress—maintain a positive mindset. During this period, get plenty of rest, and keep your diet light, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This is beneficial for your overall health.
