Patient's question:
We don't have a baby at home, and she has only been born for about ten days. This morning when I went to see her, I noticed that her baby's face was a bit yellow, and I strongly suspected that she had newborn jaundice. I was very worried and wanted to know what are the symptoms of newborn jaundice?Doctor's answer:
If a newborn has jaundice, it can cause the baby's skin and eyes to appear yellowish. You can check if the white of their eyes is also relatively yellow. Additionally, it can be seen on the forehead, eyes, chest, and back. It's recommended to have them tested. If it appears quite yellow, then it can be determined that the baby has neonatal jaundice.
