Newborn jaundice after blue light treatment, abdominal distension and diarrhea, what to do

Patient's question:

My child has been born for a week. Yesterday, when Grandma was holding him in the sun, I noticed that he was a bit yellow. It is said that jaundice in newborns is normal, but I am still very worried. Please ask: What should I do if the newborn has bloating and diarrhea after being exposed to blue light for jaundice?

Doctor's answer:

Hello baby, this situation should be due to abdominal cold, indigestion, or caused by taking yellow-dye-reducing medication.
Advice: It is recommended to apply Baby's Magic Patch on the navel externally, while also getting a stool routine test. Additionally, oral probiotics and smectite should be taken to regulate gastrointestinal function.
In addition to standard treatment for neonatal jaundice, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as proper eating habits and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a regular hospital for treatment to achieve better therapeutic effects.
