Patient's question:
Umbilical cord hasn't fallen off after 20 days. Onset time: Test results: Previous treatment and effectiveness: The umbilical cord is also not damp. I sterilize her twice a day.Doctor's answer:
Because many babies' umbilical cords fall off within 20 days, it is necessary to endure daily sterilization, using 75% alcohol (make sure to remember this). Alternatively, you can apply purple medicine on it, which will fall off quickly. If your baby's umbilical cord area is dry, without blood, odor, or pus, there should be no problem. If there is always blood, you should take your baby to the hospital, as it may be due to the umbilical cord knot being tied too short. After the umbilical cord dries, it may retract along with the string, making it unable to fall off naturally. It is important to resolve this at the hospital as soon as possible.
