Newborn yellow bile is 20, do you want to be hospitalized, can you get it down with medicine The bab

Hello, I don't know what you mean by jaundice value? Are you talking about bilirubin? If it is a total bilirubin of 20, it is not too high and is not a big problem.

Advice: Please provide your clinical symptoms, as well as your medical history and provide your laboratory test sheet.

Neonatal jaundice, true jaundice refers to pathological jaundice, such as neonatal hemolytic disease, neonatal sepsis, neonatal hepatitis, congenital bile duct atresia and so on. Pseudojaundice refers to physiological jaundice in children, which does not need to be **.

Jaundice is found 24 hours after birth, and can disappear naturally within 14 days, there are no other symptoms, it is called physiological jaundice, 50% of normal children will have physiological jaundice, for premature infants, the incidence of physiological jaundice is higher, up to 80%.

Physiological jaundice, most of which appear on the third day of life. The early ones appear on the second day after birth, and the late ones can appear on the 5th day, and their color is generally lighter and lighter, and it is light yellow, and it usually fades in 2-3 days. In milder cases, the resolution of jaundice can be delayed until 5-6 days after the onset of jaundice, and jaundice in premature infants should not exceed 7-10 days at most.

Jaundice lasting more than 14 days is called protracted jaundice, or pathological jaundice caused by other diseases.

Physiological jaundice usually occurs first on the face, neck, and then throughout the chest, abdomen, and extremities, with yellow staining of the sclera, the whitish part of the eye. The cause of physiological jaundice is related to the metabolism of bilirubin in the body after birth. There is a transferase that can eliminate excess bilirubin in the body, which can only mature 3-5 days after the child is born, so during this period, the newborn will have too much bilirubin cord in the body and manifest as jaundice.

When this transferase matures, the excess bilirubin is eliminated and the jaundice disappears. Therefore, physiological jaundice is not needed, it is a natural phenomenon in the process of human growth.

Pathological jaundice, on the other hand, is caused by a variety of **. Some diseases are so serious that they can be life-threatening. Neonatal hemolysis is the most common jaundice disease, which is caused by the destruction of fetal red blood cell aggregation and hemolysis due to the blood group incompatibility between the newborn and the mother, causing anemia, edema, hepatosplenomegaly, and hyperbilirubinemia.

If a large amount of bilirubin in the body invades the nucleus of human central nervous cells, the jaundice will be more serious, which is called kernicterus in medicine, and its mortality rate is high, and it is easy to have sequelae. The most common method is exchange transfusion. Mild symptoms can be treated with phototherapy, also known as blue light irradiation, which is a symptomatic treatment and cannot cure the root cause.

Therefore, phototherapy does not replace blood but can reduce the number of exchange transfusions. The main manifestation of neonatal hepatitis is jaundice, which often appears in the neonatal period, because physiological jaundice persists and does not go away, after the examination is confirmed, after a certain **60-70% of patients can**, and the prognosis is better. Patients with congenital bile duct atresia are born with a normal appearance, and after 1-1 week after birth, they begin to appear ** yellow staining, and gradually worsen, their yellow color is dark, slightly brownish-green.

Western medicine calls it green jaundice, and Chinese medicine believes that it belongs to the category of yin and yellow, and its feces are grayish-white is another major characteristic. Due to the limitations of surgical techniques, surgery is only available to some patients**. In addition, hormones can be used**, but the prognosis of the disease is poor, after 3 months, the liver begins to cirrhosis, and death due to liver failure occurs within 6 months to 2 years of age, and only a few patients survive longer.
