Dr. Xie Zixing
Symptoms of pathological jaundice in newborns include yellowing of the skin and sclera, possibly progressing to generalized skin yellowing. The condition may also be accompanied by poor responsiveness, lethargy, and refusal to feed. In severe cases, symptoms such as limb twitching, high-pitched crying, and seizures may occur. When a newborn is diagnosed with pathological jaundice, it is recommended to follow standardized treatment under medical supervision.
