Patient's question:
What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? How should I handle an infant's umbilical cord that hasn't fallen off yet?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is considered to be caused by umbilical inflammation. Iodophor can be used for topical disinfection, and intravenous fluids may be administered for treatment if necessary. Pay attention to local hygiene and keep the area dry to prevent infection. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are more prone to pediatric general surgery conditions. For parents, do not panic and should take the child to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Also, regular check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medication should be administered according to the doctor's guidance.
