A. My son was also diagnosed with high jaundice after his birth. He was on phototherapy after his blood test showed high jaundice level which was 18.Blood test need to be done to know if the phototherapy is required or not.kindly get the blood test done to know the bilirubin level of your child.Also consult your local dr regarding the same.
