Jaundice, almost all babies will experience. Anyway, my child experienced it when he was a child. Of course, he was scared to death.

Looking at the original white baby suddenly turned into a little yellow, friends are very nervous and worried. Many people can't cure for a long time, not because they can't cure, but because they don't understand it. Let's introduce to you how the child's jaundice is going on?.

How is child icterus to return a responsibility?

First, let's look at the cycle of bilirubin. When our body's red blood cells are replaced, the old red blood cells die and are processed by the body to produce bilirubin (this is 75%, and the other 25% comes from other parts). When bilirubin is removed from the body, it needs to enter the liver for detoxification, and then turns into bile to be discharged into the intestine, which is then treated by intestinal probiotics and discharged out of the body with the stool. Part of the untreated bilirubin will be absorbed by the intestine and return to the blood, and go through the above steps again. This process is called "bilirubin hepatointestinal circulation".

Second: our baby is in a hypoxic environment during the fetal period. In order to increase the oxygen content in the blood, red blood cells will also increase. Fetal period is to rely on the placenta to excrete bilirubin, but after the baby was born, began to breathe with the lungs, into the normal oxygen environment, which makes a large number of red blood cells become redundant.

Third: the death of the baby's red blood cells, liver detoxification ability is weak, less intestinal probiotics, bilirubin re circulation to the blood increased. If the baby does not defecate many times, it increases the chance of bilirubin returning to the body. So, the bilirubin in the baby's blood is increasing, to a certain extent, the yellow skin and eyes appear.
