Patient's question:
What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? Do babies still need to apply umbilical stickers after the full moon?Doctor's answer:
Newborn belly buttons usually fall off within 7 days, but currently, due to the reasons of excessive nutrition, the detachment is often delayed. However, if the umbilical cord falls off, there may be bleeding and discharge. If not treated promptly, it could lead to granuloma, umbilical fistula, or umbilical hernia. Minimally invasive surgical treatment is required, followed by a large amount of antibiotics to prevent infection. Avoid spicy and other irritating foods.
