What are the reasons for newborn jaundice?

Patient's question:

Is the child Huang the same as jaundice? Usually, to diagnose jaundice, do you need to look at the child's skin? How is it treated

Doctor's answer:

The above symptoms are all caused by neonatal jaundice. Further tests are needed to determine the cause of neonatal jaundice. Treatment of the underlying cause is the most effective. Neonatal jaundice is often hemolytic jaundice, breast milk jaundice, etc. Under normal circumstances, these conditions require oral yellow medicine and sunlight. Sunlight helps to fade the jaundice. On sunny days, it is appropriate to sunbathe. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly return to the hospital for bilirubin checks. If it is too high, we need to be hospitalized for treatment and undergo blue light therapy.
