Lovleena MishraMom of 2 children4 years agoA. In some cases, phototherapy will be needed for 5-7 days and in some other cases, it may be required only for about 24 hours or lesser. The healthcare providers will closely monitor the baby and keep checking the bilirubin levels. When the levels are low enough, they would turn off the lights. Another blood test will be done within 24 hours to check whether the bilirubin levels are stable.
