Patient's question:
The baby is too young and doesn't want to go to the hospital for the trouble. I don't know how to correctly judge at home. When I woke up early this morning, I noticed the baby's face was a bit yellow, and today's bowel movement was also a little yellow. I want to ask how can I determine if the baby's jaundice is being excreted?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this parent. Jaundice encephalopathy can easily cause intellectual disability in babies. This condition requires hospitalization in the pediatric department for treatment, including oral jaundice-reducing medication combined with blue light therapy, and blood transfusion therapy if necessary. Appropriately increase probiotics. Regular follow-up. It cannot be determined at home whether you need to take your baby to the local hospital for bilirubin testing and for the hospital doctor to determine if recovery has been achieved.
