A. Write Your Answer Here I would not deny that it is actually on the higher side but that is still okay I would like to tell you over here that a lot of times could have the temperatures on have these levels but it can very well be taken into control by keeping your child into phototherapy for 24 to 48 hours or maybe 72 hours if required

A. Yea levels are important. Adequate sun exposure will help and treatment. I feel and suggest It's better to check with your doctor and follow their advise. That would be one of the best and safest option for your baby as of now. Take care.
