Patient's question:
How much jaundice in newborns can receive a preventive vaccine? Maybe this kid is just a bit too average in terms of physical health! His older siblings didn't have this issue, only he does. Our family is quite rough on him, and we've never encountered this situation before. We don't know what to do?Doctor's answer:
If the infant's jaundice is mild and the jaundice index is less than 6, as long as the infant is in good spirits, vaccination can be administered. If the infant has moderate to severe jaundice and symptoms such as poor feeding, lethargy, convulsions, and spasms, vaccination is not recommended. At the same time, symptomatic treatments such as blue light therapy or oral Gentian and Coptis granules should be taken. If it is caused by infection, antibiotics, antiviral drugs, and other symptomatic treatments are required.
