One of the most efficient and simple treatments for infants with neonatal jaundice is phototherapy. It is frequently used to lower newborns' bilirubin levels because it is this substance that causes jaundice. An infant receives light treatment while being confined in a plastic crib and exposed to a light type that is absorbed by skin. The bilirubin in the infant's body is changed throughout this process into a much more straightforward water-soluble form, which is easily eliminated through stools and urine.

By exposing the infant's body to specific lights that help transform bilirubin into a form that can be easily flushed out through urine, this therapy reduces several adverse effects, such as mild allergic reactions, fever from an illness, and changes in blood composition. Skin diseases brought on by an immune system response may benefit from it. Psoriasis, a skin disorder that results in red, silvery, scaly areas on the skin, is one of the skin conditions that can be treated using this method. Eczema is a rash, itchy skin disorder or allergic dermatitis.
