How can neonatal jaundice be treated?

Patient's question:

My child has newborn jaundice, and it is pathological jaundice. What should be done when suffering from this kind of disease? How to solve newborn jaundice? What should be paid attention to in daily life or usually, which is better for the child's illness?

Doctor's answer:

Most babies who take medicine are prescribed Gentian Yellow by doctors. The side effects are nausea and diarrhea. It's essential to ask the doctor about the dosage, otherwise, it's very easy to damage the baby's stomach and intestines. Moreover, most doctors will also prescribe probiotics for the baby to provide some protection for the digestive system.
Carry the baby out to bask in the sun more often. If you can stick to about an hour of sun exposure every day, it will effectively relieve the baby's jaundice. Generally, jaundice will completely disappear within 25 to 30 days after birth. Mom should pay close attention and seek medical treatment promptly if any problems arise.
