Patient's question:
My baby was born a few days ago, but when the doctor gave a thorough examination, they discovered that my baby had jaundice. However, since the condition wasn't very serious, the doctor recommended that I buy some traditional Chinese medicine patches for treatment. But I'd like to ask, what types of traditional Chinese medicine patches are available for newborn jaundice?Doctor's answer:
There are several reasons why a child may develop jaundice again. If the jaundice is pathological, oral jaundice-reducing medication or treatments such as blue light therapy may be necessary. Topical medications may also provide some relief. You can search online, preferably for those available at hospitals or pharmacies. If it is breast milk jaundice, it is currently not possible to determine whether breastfeeding should continue. It is recommended to take oral medication under the guidance of a local doctor.
