Patient's question:
My baby was born with jaundice in the hospital. At that time, the doctor recommended that we expose him to light. However, the family members thought it was normal and believed it would fade on its own. Later, we were discharged and went home. Now, a month has passed, and the jaundice has not subsided. How should neonatal jaundice be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, ?There are many types of neonatal jaundice. Jaundice is divided into physiological jaundice, pathological jaundice, or breast milk jaundice. If abnormalities are found in the infant, it must be sent to a pediatric hospital in time. If the infant has physiological jaundice, medication can be taken. Breastfeeding needs to be paused for observation. Pathological jaundice may require hospital treatment. Untimely treatment of infant jaundice may lead to danger.
