Neonatal jaundice can generally be improved through methods such as sunlight exposure, blue light therapy, dietary adjustments, medication, or blood exchange therapy. It is recommended to make decisions under the guidance of a professional doctor based on individual conditions. Physiological jaundice usually resolves spontaneously; in daily life, increased sun exposure is advised, which may help alleviate jaundice. For pathological jaundice, it is essential first to identify the underlying cause and then select an appropriate treatment approach.
