Is This Bilirubin Level High? by Ijelenwanyioma(op): 5:43pm On Aug 07, 2023
I gave birth some days ago and today I was told to bring my baby for neonatal test today

Please from this result, how severe is the jaundice? Is it something I can manage at home with sun and unripe pawpaw soaked in water or does he need phototherapy light?
Please help me
Dont just read and pass🙏🙏🙏🙏

It is very high and she will need phototherapy. Delay could be dangerous as poorly treated jaundice can cause cerebral palsy and serious developmental delay.

The doctor who asked you to do the test shoumdt have let you go hoke with the baby, them spos admit that baby.

Under phototherapy, the bilirubin level will be tested every 48 hours to know if its coming down, it would have come down below 12 before they'll discharge. I pray the child won't even need blood transfusion.

This isn't pawpaw water matter.

Run to the hospital with the baby. Let a doctor tell you if it can be treated at home or not. Google children with "cerebral palsy" so that you can know what you're joking with.
