Patient's question:
My baby is 23 days old today, breastfeeding, with a forehead jaundice level of 12.7. She has vomited several times. Is it necessary to stop breastfeeding? Is it beneficial for jaundice to drink glucose water and sunbathe? How high can a baby's jaundice level be considered normal?Doctor's answer:
If the jaundice level reaches 12.7, it indicates a high level. Whether it is physiological or pathological jaundice, any increase suggests liver damage. Currently, further tests are needed to clarify the specific cause of the jaundice increase for targeted treatment.Advice: Additionally, stop breastfeeding, get some sun exposure, and if necessary, use medication to control the condition and undergo light therapy.
