What is the reason for high jaundice?
High neonatal jaundice is closely related to excessive red blood cells in the body. When children's red blood cells are damaged, a large amount of bilirubin will be formed, and this bilirubin is the main factor inducing jaundice. Therefore, newborns with excessive red blood cells in the body usually have symptoms of high jaundice.
Bilirubin in the human body needs liver enzymes in the liver to participate in metabolism, but because the liver function of the newborn is not yet perfect, so the secretion of liver enzymes is not enough to make bilirubin metabolize completely, so many newborns have the symptoms of high jaundice.
Due to the neonatal biliary tract function is not yet fully developed, it is unable to timely discharge bilirubin, resulting in excessive accumulation of bilirubin in the body, leading to high jaundice.
