Patient's question:
Now, the little baby has been born for almost three or four days. When the baby was first born, the jaundice was relatively high. Then, in the hospital, they received treatment for a period of time, worrying about the baby's health issues. What are the symptoms of neonatal jaundice?Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, children will develop physiological jaundice after birth. It typically appears two days after birth and gradually disappears within seven days. The jaundice index should not exceed 12.9. If a child's jaundice index is too high or the duration is prolonged, it is considered abnormal and is classified as pathological jaundice, requiring medication for treatment. Currently, you need to take your child to a public hospital for regular follow-up to monitor the jaundice index.
