My one month old baby has g6pd deficiency. He had jaundice 27 in day 5 he got phototherapy level came down to 15. It again rebounded and became 20 on day 10 took phototherapy again for two days level came down to 9. Got tested again on day 16 level was 12, doctor said no need for further testing. Today he is one month old but his face and eyes still has yellow tinge. Do we need further testing? Thank you
No, the level is okay for discharge. The yellowish discoloration would persist for longer duration. You have to be careful regarding use of medicine and drugs for your child.
Baby is doing poop once in 4 days and colour is Dark Greenish from last 15 days
