Patient's question:
When the child was born, it was found that the jaundice level was slightly high. After taking the medicine for a few days, the re-examination showed a decrease. Is it still necessary to focus on drinking medicine to stabilize it? Please ask: Can newborn jaundice be treated with blue light at the hospital?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, both of these medications are acceptable, but they should not be taken long-term. As soon as the jaundice fades, stop taking the medication immediately. During the treatment period, closely monitor the child's condition. If the jaundice does not subside, it is recommended that you seek further testing at a higher-level hospital to prevent missed opportunities for treatment and to avoid causing harm to the child. Additionally, during the treatment of neonatal jaundice, the patient's dietary condition and care are also crucial. The patient must pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activity to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answer helps you. Thank you.
