Physiological jaundice in newborns is actually very common. If you ask when the baby's jaundice will subside, first of all, this kind of baby jaundice does not require special treatment and will generally disappear on its own in about 7 days. Although physiological jaundice is a relatively common normal phenomenon, parents still need to pay attention to it and do daily observations. Once an abnormality is found, such as severe jaundice that does not subside quickly, it may be pathological jaundice, which requires timely treatment. Generally, potassium magnesium aspartate tablets have a good therapeutic effect. Breast milk jaundice can usually be completely eliminated in about 3 months. However, it depends on the jaundice index of the child. Many babies have persistent jaundice, which can easily lead to jaundice pneumonia. Parents can give their children 15 grams of glucose-water solution every day, or take Chinese medicine Artemisia annua water under the guidance of a doctor. These have a good effect on relieving and treating baby jaundice. Many parents are worried about when their baby's jaundice will subside. In fact, there is no need to worry too much about this disease. Parents should give their children enough care and pay attention to their children's physical condition at all times. If they find any abnormalities in their body, they should seek medical examination in time to find the most appropriate treatment method, so that the baby's disease can be cured faster, the baby's jaundice can subside earlier, and the baby can have a healthy body. How long does it take for jaundice in children to subside? Medically, jaundice in babies under one month old (within 28 days of birth) is called neonatal jaundice. Neonatal jaundice refers to a disease characterized by jaundice of the skin, mucous membranes and sclera due to abnormal bilirubin metabolism causing increased bilirubin levels in the blood during the neonatal period. This disease can be divided into physiological and pathological. Physiological jaundice appears 2 to 3 days after birth, reaches a peak in 4 to 6 days, and disappears in 7 to 10 days. It lasts longer in premature infants and has no other clinical symptoms except for a slight loss of appetite. If jaundice appears within 24 hours after birth, does not subside within 2 to 3 weeks, or even continues to deepen and worsen or reappears after subsiding, or jaundice begins to appear within one to several weeks after birth, it is pathological jaundice.

If it is physiological jaundice, it will only begin to appear two or three days after the child is born; breast milk jaundice will only begin to appear one week after birth. (1) General jaundice: Generally, jaundice will begin to subside after seven days, and most jaundice will disappear completely in about two weeks. (2) How long does it take for breast milk jaundice to subside? Some cases of breast milk jaundice may take a little longer to subside, perhaps in about a month. (3) How long does it take for pathological jaundice to subside? However, pathological jaundice is different. It appears very early, within one or two days after birth, and rapidly worsens. Once it appears, it rapidly worsens and often takes a long time to subside. Sometimes it may not subside for two to three weeks or more than a month. In some cases, it may gradually subside and then rebound and worsen. This is also a characteristic of pathological jaundice. |
