Please rush to consult a child specialist, as collapsed gall bladder (unless it is a scan done after feeding, it shouldn't be collapsed) along with deep jaundice indicates obstruction to outflow of bile: needs urgent EARLY intervention
Next Steps
Time is of essence as there are a subset of newborns's jaundice which requires early surgical correction
Health Tips
The window to recover normal liver function decreases with time
