Hi there,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
There are many different causes for high bilirubin level in a 3.25 months olf baby.
Liv 52 and exposure to sunlight will not help. In fact can be harmful too.
Go to a pediatrician for complete evaluation. He may need multiple tests to be done.
I hope that answers your query.
Regards.
