Patient's question:
My baby has jaundice. What should I eat? Can I give him Yinzhihuang oral liquid?Doctor's answer:
If the baby has physiological jaundice at birth, it will subside on its own within 15 days after birth and does not require medication. If it is pathological, medication can be administered. Physiological jaundice appears 2-3 days after birth, peaks 4-6 days later, and then subsides between 7-10 days. If jaundice occurs within 24 hours after birth and does not subside within 2-3 weeks, even if it deepens or recurs after initially fading, or if jaundice only begins 1 week to several weeks after birth, these are all signs of pathological jaundice.
