Patient's question:
My colleague's child went to the hospital for a check-up yesterday. The doctor said the bilirubin level was 280. Whether this requires hospitalization, what treatment should be given, and whether a bilirubin level of 280 requires hospitalization?Doctor's answer:
Hello, jaundice at 280 requires hospitalization. It is important to seek medical attention promptly for examination and treatment, and do not delay the condition. Your baby's case falls within the range of pathological jaundice. In this situation, you can try oral medication with Mimi Ai and Yin Zhi Huang to reduce jaundice. If the effect is not good, consider phototherapy. It is better to follow the doctor's guidance for treatment, which is safe and secure. Wishing you good health.
