What's wrong with newborn jaundice not subsiding?

Patient's question:

My child is a boy who is over 40 days old. The jaundice hasn't gone away, and there are small red bumps on his face. The child hasn't had a bowel movement for two days. The mother is taking Chinese medicine—Six Flavor Rehmannia Pills and Ten Major Tonic Pills. The medicine was prescribed by a small doctor in our village. Is it possible that the medicine is affecting the child? The jaundice hasn't gone away, and the vaccination hasn't been given.

Doctor's answer:

Hello! At 40 days, the jaundice cannot be physiological jaundice. I don't know what the jaundice index of your baby is. It is recommended to seek medical advice to find the cause. The child has a small red fly on his face. It is generally believed that the room's eczema and high temperature are too dense and severe! It is recommended to open the windows for ventilation, loosen the coating, and wash the face with water. It is better for the mother to avoid taking medication during breastfeeding.
