Patient's question:
It has been 15 days now, and I have been hospitalized for 5 days. The jaundice is normal, and after discharge, I have been breastfeeding. Currently, my child's complexion is a bit yellow. I plan to go to the First Hospital tomorrow to check it. Now, I just want to ask what should I do if my child's jaundice is too high?Doctor's answer:
Delayed jaundice is related to many factors. In addition to pathological jaundice, there is also a condition called breast milk jaundice, which has a high jaundice index, prolonged jaundice duration, and can recur, lasting up to three months. If breastfeeding, it is recommended to stop for a while, expose the baby to more sunlight, and take Yinzhihuang. Additionally, you need to follow a dietary restriction, as it is very important for breastfeeding. Observe closely and do not rush to take the baby to the hospital for various tests at the slightest symptom, as it is not good for the baby.
