Patient's question:
The baby was just born 5 days ago and was found to have jaundice. They said the baby needs to stay in the hospital for a week and have blood drawn! I'm so worried, it's urgent! Has anyone else had the same experience? Is this serious? The baby is going to have a hard time!Doctor's answer:
It's better not to trust home remedies. I suggest that children with jaundice should be actively treated under the guidance of a doctor. Conventional treatment is better. I want to know the value of jaundice in children now. Generally, there are medical treatment and blue light therapy. When a child has jaundice, I suggest giving them appropriate fluids and some sunlight, which can also help with their jaundice. If medication is used, it's better to do so under the guidance of a doctor.
