Mom is type O blood. How to treat newborn jaundice

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 serious issue, but some people say jaundice can lead to cerebral palsy in children, which scares me. Please ask: Mother is blood type O, what should be done about neonatal jaundice?

Doctor's answer:

It's normal for babies to have jaundice. Most babies experience jaundice. A reading of over 11 points is not considered high. Regarding the medication, it is recommended to take Yinzhihuang Oral Liquid. You may also need to take probiotics. Sunlight exposure for the child is beneficial, but avoid exposing them to sunlight through glass.
The baby's jaundice condition is quite severe. It is advised that the patient seek immediate treatment. It is hoped that the patient can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care and maintain a proper diet to avoid worsening the condition.
The above advice is hoped to be helpful to you. Thank you.
