Patient's question:
Newborn jaundice is high, and the blue light treatment has reduced it. However, after returning home for a few days, the jaundice has increased significantly again. How should newborn jaundice be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
In this situation, the baby must be given more boiled water to drink. It is likely a urinary tract infection, and if it doesn't improve, intravenous treatment may be necessary. It is recommended that you minimize spicy foods during breastfeeding and avoid alcohol. You must drink more boiled water and can use warm boiled water to rinse the external genital area. If it still doesn't improve, both of you can cooperate for intravenous treatment. It is best to consider the specific situation individually.In addition to promptly treating neonatal jaundice, the patient also needs to pay attention to care aspects, such as a light diet to prevent spicy foods from affecting the condition. At the same time, the patient should also be mindful of choosing a regular hospital for treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
