How does neonatal jaundice go down quickly?

Patient's question:

My baby is just 5 days old. This looks a bit yellow. How can newborn jaundice be reduced quickly?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to regularly measure the bilirubin index to determine whether it is physiological jaundice or pathological jaundice. If it is physiological jaundice, parents should not worry too much. As long as they strengthen the baby's feeding and promote bowel movements, the baby's jaundice will gradually disappear. The treatment of neonatal jaundice is a comprehensive treatment. While actively treating jaundice, it is necessary to prevent and treat diseases that may occur in infants, such as hypoxia, hypercapnia, and infection.
