Patient's question:
A child was born two months ago with jaundice on their face. Is this value high? Hello, how severe is it? Can they receive vaccinations? There are five points on their body that are unclear. If they are high, what should be done?Doctor's answer:
The child's reappearance of jaundice is due to abnormal decomposition and metabolism of bilirubin in the body. If the child is currently two months old and the jaundice on their face, except for the 7, is relatively severe, it is highly likely to be attributed to breast milk jaundice if breastfeeding is being practiced. Currently, it is recommended to stop breastfeeding for a few days and closely monitor the jaundice levels. Once the jaundice values return to normal, the child can be vaccinated. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
