Jaundice Treatment Near Me — Expert Care for Children & Adults in Paschim Vihar, New Delhi

Understanding Jaundice: Types, Causes and When to Seek Jaundice Treatment

“Jaundice treatment near me” is often the first search families make when yellowing appears in skin or eyes. Jaundice means elevated bilirubin in the blood. It can affect newborns and adults and has different causes and urgency levels.

Common types of jaundice include:

  • Neonatal jaundice — common in newborns due to immature bilirubin processing. About 80% of babies show some jaundice in the first week. (source)
  • Hemolytic jaundice — from rapid red cell breakdown, seen in hemolytic anemia. (source)
  • Hepatic jaundice — caused by liver disease like hepatitis or cirrhosis. (source)
  • Obstructive (post-hepatic) jaundice — due to bile duct blockage from stones or tumors. (source)

Watch for warning signs that need urgent treatment:

  • Worsening yellowing, dark urine, pale stools.
  • Severe abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, confusion.
  • In newborns: poor feeding, extreme sleepiness, high-pitched crying. (source)

Diagnosis: Essential Tests (Bilirubin, LFTs, Viral Markers, Ultrasound) and What Results Mean

If you type “jaundice treatment near me”, expect a clear diagnostic plan. Tests confirm cause and guide urgent treatment. Prompt testing matters for both babies and adults.

Common diagnostic tests we rely on include:

  • Total and direct bilirubin — measures severity and conjugation status.
  • Liver function tests (LFTs) — assess liver injury and cholestasis. (reference)
  • Complete blood count and hemolysis screen — detect hemolytic causes.
  • Viral markers — hepatitis A, B, C testing when infection is suspected.
  • Ultrasound abdomen — detects bile duct obstruction, gallstones, or liver structure changes.

How to read basic results:

  • High indirect (unconjugated) bilirubin often points to neonatal immaturity or hemolysis.
  • High direct (conjugated) bilirubin suggests obstructive or hepatic causes.
  • Elevated transaminases (ALT/AST) indicate hepatocellular injury. (reference)

We offer on-site ultrasound (upper, lower and whole abdomen) and partner with Lal Path Labs for blood testing. Our lab hours are 8am–3pm on weekdays and 8am–12pm on Sundays, helping get results quickly so we can act fast.

Treatment Pathways at Sanchet Hospital: Newborn Phototherapy & Exchange Transfusion to Adult Hepatology Care

When families search “jaundice treatment near me”, they want to know treatment choices. Treatment depends on cause, age and test results.

Neonatal treatments we provide:

  • Phototherapy — blue light aids bilirubin breakdown. It is the first-line treatment for many newborns. (source)
  • Exchange transfusion — used for very high bilirubin or rapidly rising levels.
  • Feeding support and monitoring — to ensure hydration and bilirubin clearance.

Adult hepatology and interventional options:

  • Medical management — treat viral hepatitis, autoimmune disease or drug-induced injury.
  • Endoscopic or surgical interventions — relieve obstructive jaundice from stones or tumors. (reference)
  • Long-term liver care — follow-up for cirrhosis or chronic liver disease.

We run a NICU, have pediatric consultants for urgent newborn care, and adult gastroenterology support. Our in-house ultrasound services (upper/whole abdomen) and access to blood tests speed decisions. For newborn parents, we also provide pediatric follow-up and resources at our pediatrician page: Sanchet Hospital Pediatrician.
