How much jaundice does a newborn have?

Patient's question:

Born 4 days, jaundice value 20.5, ABO hemolysis excluded, liver function test shows high bilirubin. What help is needed: How to treat, already under blue light, whether albumin injection is needed

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I am very happy to answer your question: For newborns, it is very normal if the jaundice lasts within 12 days. If it exceeds 14 days, medication is needed to control the jaundice. So in your case, medication is required to control it. It is usually physiological jaundice, and you can combine it with blue light exposure and oral Gentian Formula Granules. If the effect is not good, albumin injection may be necessary. I hope my reply helps you.
