Patient's question:
The baby was born at 1 PM on the 26th. On the third day in the morning, the jaundice level measured via transcutaneous bilirubin test was 6.1. The doctor didn't prescribe any medication. By the morning of the third day, the jaundice level had risen to over 11 o'clock. We were taken directly to the neonatal department for blue light treatment. It's still not visible now. Is this okay? Please ask: What should be done if jaundice occurs in newborns?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if jaundice is severe, it may affect the baby even if it does not affect feeding. Hello, I suggest you use glucose water appropriately for treatment. If the effect is not obvious, seek follow-up treatment promptly. Neonatal jaundice has a significant impact on patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and pay close attention to self-care. Eat more vegetables and fruits, avoid stimulating foods, and hope that neonatal jaundice patients can receive professional treatment.
