What should be done if a newborn has high jaundice?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello! My child has been born for over a month. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said that my child's jaundice level is high. I don't know what's going on, so I wanted to ask the doctor, what should I do if a newborn's jaundice level is high?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this child's jaundice level is too high. In this case, the child can take medication to eliminate jaundice. Usually, the child can also drink some water appropriately and get some sun. This will help improve jaundice. If the jaundice does not improve, the child can also receive blue light therapy. I hope the child's symptoms improve quickly and grow up healthy and happy.
