Patient's question:
My daughter was born two days ago. She had a slightly yellow complexion at birth, but they said many babies are like that, so we didn't pay much attention. This morning, she started having a fever, and the doctor said it's neonatal jaundice and she needs to be hospitalized for treatment. I want to ask how long does the treatment for neonatal jaundice usually take to recover?Doctor's answer:
According to the description, the child has jaundice symptoms after birth, and currently has fever symptoms. It is necessary to check whether the jaundice symptoms are caused by infection. The most important thing is to check whether there are signs of infection at the umbilical area of the child. Symptomatic treatment is needed. The recovery time of the child depends on the treatment condition and the jaundice symptoms of the child. Pay attention to good care.
