Patient's question:
Our baby just started showing yellow spots on their body, so we had their jaundice level checked. It was 35. I don't know if it's serious or not, so I wanted to ask if a newborn's jaundice level of 35 is serious?Doctor's answer:
Jaundice level is 350, which is a severe value. If blue light cannot reduce bilirubin, other methods need to be considered. Neonatal jaundice is caused by high levels of bilirubin in the body. The higher the bilirubin reaches the brain, the greater the risk of brain disease. It is highly recommended to hospitalize and treat the patient following the doctor's guidance. It is absolutely essential not to resort to desperate measures out of desperation. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
