Patient's question:
The child has been born for more than ten days. Previously, due to pneumonia, we couldn't see them in the ICU, and only recently have they been brought home. I noticed that the child's skin is a bit yellow, and combined with the previous pneumonia, I'm very worried. Please ask: If a newborn has jaundice, do they still need to be under blue light treatment?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described above, it is likely breast milk jaundice. It is best to have some blue light treatment. Suggestions: Based on the situation you described above, it is likely breast milk jaundice. It is best to have some blue light treatment, and continue taking Yinzhihuang and Bifidobacterium. When newborns are affected by jaundice, we should promptly implement the principle of symptomatic treatment and should not avoid seeking medical attention. If the newborn's jaundice does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly change the treatment plan.
