A. for that evaluation required ok. if there is no relief it is better you see your doctor for proper examination particularly physical examination if there is need for doing investigations to find out the problem and treatment ok

A. That is very normal so I would recommend you to start with vitamin D supplement and keep your child to indirect sunlight for about 30 to 35 minutes every morning and if you want you can extend the time depending upon how you want to proceed with a minimum of 30 to 35 minutes is definitely advisable to reduce down the remaining jaundice level and good absorption of vitamin D
