How to get rid of newborn jaundice

Patient's question:

The child was not very normal from birth, and we were very worried. We went to the hospital for a check-up. Please ask how to get rid of newborn jaundice.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the baby's jaundice may be caused by breastfeeding. Montmorillonite powder is a medication that protects the intestinal mucosa and does not need to be given to the baby. It is recommended to stop breastfeeding and carefully observe. If the jaundice disappears, we should wean the baby and switch to artificial feeding. The baby should be protected from the cold, and the indoor air should be kept circulating. Sunlight is beneficial to the baby's healthy growth. Patients facing newborn jaundice should actively undergo examinations and treatments. Do not avoid seeking medical attention. If the newborn jaundice does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to change the treatment plan in a timely manner.
