Patient's question:
The question of how to treat neonatal jaundice. It's just turned one month old, and I'm not sure when it will occur (the room lighting isn't very good). About ten days ago, I noticed that the face and neck were very yellow, and the eyes too. Now it has faded a little, but the whole body is still yellow. What should I do? Please ask how to best treat neonatal jaundice.Doctor's answer:
Most babies develop jaundice about three days after birth, which is a physiological jaundice. It usually disappears after about 14 days. Without treatment, the prognosis is good.4= If jaundice occurs within 24 hours after birth, it is usually more severe and progresses rapidly. If jaundice appears after returning home, consider pathological jaundice. If you are unsure about your baby's condition, it is recommended to see a doctor to avoid delay.
The above is advice on "What to do about jaundice." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
