How to treat jaundice in newborn at home

Hello everyone today I will be talking about jaundice in newborn babies some new or first time mothers don't know it's usually healthy babies that as jaundice at birth,jaundice is normally harmless at birth jaundice is caused by the build up of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellow substance produced when red blood cells are broken down. Symptoms are yellowing of the palms and feet dark or yellow urine normally a new born babies urine should be colourless. I will be talking about papaya which is called (pawpaw) in my country Nigeria about 5years plus my son had jaundice at birth and it scared me so much cos I was so worried but guess what unriped pawpaw got rid of it without me stepping into the hospital till jaundice packed is load and I had rest of mind so I'm sharing this today to help fellow mothers like myself i hope it's useful for you
1.get fresh unriped papaya (pawpaw)
2.get a clean bowl with cover
3.wash the papaya (pawpaw) and slice it in the bowl 4. Pour fresh clean water on the sliced papaya(pawpaw) cover it tightly overnight
5.give the baby 1teaspoonful every morning
6.add a bit to the babies bath water to shower him or her
7.change the papaya(pawpaw) and water after 4days
