NEONATAL JAUNDICE TREATMENT - AN OVERVIEW

Neonatal jaundice is a common condition in newborn infants characterized by yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes due to high levels of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellow pigment produced by the breakdown of red blood cells, and it is normally processed by the liver and excreted in the stool. However, in newborns, the liver may not be mature enough to process bilirubin efficiently, leading to a buildup of the pigment in the blood and subsequent jaundice.
