Chapter 986 (1/2)

Guo Xiang returned to the hospital after the national day.

Not long after she first went to work, a woman in her twenties came in with a child in her arms, with an anxious face.

”Doctor, can you show me what happened to my child?”

Guo Xiang saw that the child's face was yellow and even his neck was a little yellow. He hurriedly asked the woman to hold the child closer.

When I opened the child's eyelids, even the iris was a little yellow.

”This is neonatal jaundice. How old is the child?” Guo Xiang said.

”Just over a month.” The woman said, ”my co-workers who work with me also say they have jaundice, but they say they will be fine in a few days, but my child has been a month. Why hasn't he been well yet?”

”A month?” Guo Xiang held the child. The child was very small and looked like he had not been born for a few days. Generally, newborns have physiological jaundice. They don't use drugs. They can get better in a few days.

If the Yellow fades, the skin will turn white, but it's not normal to be so yellow for a month. It may be pathological jaundice.

Neonatal jaundice is that the blood bilirubin is too high and deposited in the skin and internal organs. It can be seen with the naked eye that the child's skin is yellow.

Physiological jaundice is very normal. Almost every newborn will have it. It appears 2-3 days after birth, reaches the peak in 4-6 days, and subsides in 7-10 days.

If jaundice occurs 24 hours after birth, the daily increase of serum bilirubin is more than 5mgdl or more than 0.5mgdl per hour, which lasts for a long time. Term infants are more than 2 weeks, premature infants are more than 4 weeks, and even continue to deepen or recur after regression, or jaundice begins within 1 week to several weeks after birth, they are all pathological jaundice.

”When did the child begin to yellow?” Asked Guo Xiang.

”My face turned a little yellow after birth. They said it was normal. I didn't care. Every day I hold my child to bask in the sun, but it's been a month. Not only is it not good, it's even more serious. ”

”Doctor, is there something wrong with my son?” The woman said anxiously.

Guo Xiang nodded. ”It should be pathological jaundice. It should be treated mainly by shining blue light.”

”What light?” Women don't understand.

”It's a light emitted by a machine. Blue light can cure children's jaundice. But is your child premature? Why is it so light? ” Guo Xiang weighed the child in his hand. A month is too small.

”Yes, I was born prematurely for more than a month. I may be tired.” The woman's face was a little red. ”I'm an outsider. I follow my man to work in the capital. It's on the construction site. My man is a cement worker. I help cook on the construction site...”

Guo Xiang nodded. Now there are large-scale construction and houses everywhere. I am also building a community after taking photos of my land. This woman and her husband may not do it on their own construction site.

”If you are pregnant, don't work so hard and don't go home to have children?” Guo Xiang sighed.

”Don't you want to make more money?” Women are a little embarrassed.

”The child was treated in the hospital, and he was so thin...” Guo Xiang took a thermometer to measure the child's body temperature. As a result, it was only 36 degrees, which was hypothermia.

”Is the child listless these two days?” Guo Xiang frowned.

”Yes, doctor, how do you know?” The woman asked strangely.

”The temperature is so low, you have to put it in an incubator!” Guo Xiang shook his head.

”What, what do you mean?” The woman's face changed. ”Is my child in danger?”

Guo Xianggang wanted to say that the woman suddenly covered her stomach and shouted, ”ah, my stomach hurts. I... Look like I'm going to have a baby...”

”What?” Guo Xiang was shocked. How could it be? Isn't it just a month old?

Even if you have a child in your life, it will take ten months to conceive another one. How can it be so fast?
