Patient's question:
Newborn jaundice 12 Her face is yellow, the soles of the feet are a bit The baby can sleep for three or four minutes before waking up to drink milk, which can strongly suck occasionally vomit milk but only a little How can parents distinguish between physiological jaundice and pathological jaundice? How to feed the baby?Doctor's answer:
There are two types of newborn jaundice:1. Physiological jaundice: It occurs because the production of bilirubin exceeds the liver cells' ability to take up and metabolize bilirubin. This is unrelated to it and can return to normal.
2. Pathological jaundice: It results from excessive bilirubin excretion, impaired liver breakdown and metabolism of bilirubin, disrupted bile metabolism, or hemolytic diseases, requiring treatment.
I cannot provide a definitive answer, but it is recommended to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. Currently, it is mild jaundice, and it is highly likely to be physiological.
