Jaundice in an infant 02817...India
A newborn baby boy was diagnosed with jaundice, which he developed within hours of his birth. His weight was just under 1 kg. He was kept in an incubator. His mother’s milk was drawn and was given to him. The doctors did not expect him to survive.
The baby’s grandmother came running to Dharmakshetra and was given the following remedy to be given to the baby’s mother:
CC4.11 Liver & Spleen + CC10.1 Emergencies + CC12.2 Child tonic…TDS
Since they were drawing the mother’s milk and giving it to the baby, this was the best way of getting it to the infant. We also prepared the same remedy in vibhuti to put on the baby’s incubator. Within 24 hours, the baby started to gain weight and started digesting milk. After 10 days the baby's weight had increased to 2.2 kg and he was discharged. Today he is a healthy 3-year-old.
