Is newborn jaundice 326 serious?

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
Started showing a little yellow 3 days after birth, and it's been about two weeks now. Is a transcutaneous bilirubin level of 323-326-335 a very severe case of jaundice? I would like to ask if a bilirubin level of 326 is severe?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, normal babies are apparently 25—60% likely to develop jaundice. Many experienced elderly people or mothers who have raised babies know that it's common for them to turn yellow three or four days in advance. However, there's more to this yellowing, as jaundice itself is divided into physiological jaundice and pathological jaundice. Parents need to distinguish between the two types of jaundice, which is very important.
