Patient's question:
My child has been born for some time, and her health has been quite good. However, recently I've noticed she has been experiencing some discomfort. After searching online, it's said that it might be jaundice. I'm not sure if I'm just afraid of delaying her condition, but I'd like to know what are the symptoms of jaundice in newborns?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of neonatal jaundice are very obvious: the skin will turn yellow. If the baby is uncomfortable, it is best to take the baby for a pediatric check-up to determine the cause and then provide targeted treatment. If your baby has jaundice, you should give the baby some medicine to eliminate jaundice. While taking the jaundice-reducing medicine, you should also give the baby an anti-diarrheal medicine, because taking jaundice-reducing medicine can cause the baby to have diarrhea.
