Patient's question:
Brother's baby has just been born, but the child has fallen ill. There is a rational jaundice condition, and now the baby is being treated with blue light therapy. However, the baby always cries when undergoing blue light treatment. What should be done?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, the baby cries when exposed to blue light and needs to be comforted. In most cases, placing the baby in a blue light incubator makes them feel scared and extremely unsafe, which can lead to crying. Try to comfort the baby and let them hear their mother's voice. If the jaundice is not too severe, drink more water and get more sun exposure. When the baby is not suitable for blue light treatment, they may cry. As family members, there is no need to worry too much. Since the child currently has jaundice, treatment is necessary, and medical staff will also comfort the child. Therefore, the focus is now on treating the child.
