What should I do if there is a yellowish-white substance under the baby's navel?

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child, and I have been very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has been experiencing a series of issues, and I am very concerned, fearing that the condition may worsen. Please advise on how to handle the yellowish-white substance below the baby's navel.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there is white pus in the child's navel, which is considered to be inflammation. If iodine has been used for several days and there is no improvement, it is necessary to consider seeking medical attention. You can take the child to the hospital for examination, and some anti-inflammatory drugs can be given for treatment. You can also use Yunnan Baiyao on the navel area to see if it improves. The child is troubled by neonatal diseases, so the mother must take the child to the hospital for timely medical treatment to avoid blindly using small advertisements for drugs. It is necessary to use drugs reasonably. For parents, it is important to pay timely attention to the child's condition and help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
