Patient's question:
My child was a bit yellow at birth, with a yellowish complexion and body. The doctor said it was physiological and not a major issue, but some people say jaundice can lead to cerebral palsy in children, which makes me very scared. Please ask: How can severe jaundice in newborns be treated to reduce yellowing?Doctor's answer:
Hello! This could be physiological jaundice, which is nothing serious! It can resolve on its own without medication!Suggestions: I recommend that if the jaundice level is below 12, you can give the baby some Yinzhihuang Oral Liquid or expose the baby to blue light therapy!
For the patient, if the newborn jaundice is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of jaundice in the newborn. Additionally, the patient should maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition. I hope the answers to these questions can help everyone. Thank you.
