How to treat newborn jaundice that hasn't gone away after a month

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello. The newborn jaundice hasn't gone away for a month. Do you have any good methods to get rid of the jaundice? Or what medicine would be better to take?

Doctor's answer:

When the child is one month old, the jaundice level is very high, which is caused by pathological jaundice. The causes of pathological jaundice may include hepatitis, biliary obstruction, hemolysis, breast milk-related jaundice, etc. Based on your brief description, there are no relevant tests conducted so far, so we cannot confirm the specific situation. It is recommended to go to the pediatric department of the hospital for tests such as color Doppler ultrasound, liver function tests, and hemolysis tests to identify the cause of pathological jaundice, understand the situation, and take targeted treatment measures. Currently, there is no effective medication for this condition.
