Patient's question:
My baby was born 5 days ago. In the morning, the face was 25 and the body was 15; at noon, the face was 27 and the body was 19. When they were born, they didn't cry much, slept for a long time, and would sleep after playing for a while. They can eat, poop, and pee. There were no convulsions during this time. During naps, they seemed startled, and their arms and hands would move. How should I interpret the newborn jaundice test results?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the baby's jaundice level tested in these days is not a major issue. The mother is type O blood. If there is hemolytic jaundice, the baby's jaundice level would drop quickly within 24 hours after birth. It is recommended that you relax your mind. If the jaundice level is higher than 10, medication is not advised. In your case, you can take Yinzhihuang orally and probiotics, and pay close attention to monitoring the baby's jaundice level. In addition to symptomatic treatment for newborn jaundice patients, it is also necessary to maintain a good mood in daily life. A positive attitude greatly assists in the complete recovery from the illness. I hope the above answers can help you. Thank you!
