Patient's question:
Newborn jaundice test after half a month: Chest 11.5, Face 14.1, Forehead 12. Is the value normal?Doctor's answer:
Certainly it is high. If the baby is breastfed and everything else is fine, it could be related to breastfeeding. You can increase exposure to light appropriately and take probiotics. In general, if a baby is in this condition, it might be that they haven't fully recovered or could have a secondary infection after discharge. It's advisable to take the child to the hospital for a check-up. If there are no issues, it's usually not a major problem. You can wait and see for a while. If the baby has trouble sleeping at night, it might be due to calcium deficiency. You can try giving them gluconate calcium or Longmu Zhuanggu Granules to see if it helps.
