Patient's question:
Hello, is neonatal jaundice necessary to be hospitalized? Are there any good methods for treatment? Please give advice from a doctor.Doctor's answer:
Neonatal jaundice is relatively common, with both pathological and physiological types. If it is pathological, treatment is required. If it is physiological jaundice, it generally resolves on its own, rarely lasting more than two weeks, with most cases disappearing within 10 days. This test indicator is good, but the bile acid level is elevated. We must further investigate the cause of the elevated bile acid. We need to perform ultrasound examinations of the liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, and bile ducts. If the child is in good health, he may not need to be hospitalized first. However, the relevant tests must be improved.
