Patient's question:
Normal range of newborn jaundice values. Jaundice value is high but within the normal range. On the seventh day, the jaundice value is 23. The whites of the eyes are yellow. The whole body is quite yellow. Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
If the jaundice index exceeds 14, you need to go to the hospital in time. You need blue light therapy. Take Yinghua Yellow Granules orally. Or receive blood transfusion and blood exchange. Bilirubin needs to be reduced to the normal range. If the condition worsens further, it may lead to bilirubin encephalopathy or kernicterus. Generally, active treatment is recommended. The effect is usually quite good. Daily care also requires paying attention to the child's rest. Appropriately giving the child water can help reduce jaundice.
