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: How should jaundice in newborns be treated? Can sunlight help?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the information you provided above, the baby has neonatal jaundice. The umbilicus is infectious. Suggestions: Check how to reduce the neonatal jaundice index to normal and how the blood routine is normal. It is recommended that the jaundice be reduced to normal before discharge to prevent kernicterus. For severe neonatal jaundice patients, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and treat immediately according to the doctor's advice. Do not change the new medicine randomly, otherwise the effect will be counterproductive. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can help you, thank you.
