Patient's question:
Perivascular erythema and swellingDoctor's answer:
It is recommended to handle it properly. You can wipe the umbilical cord area with 75% alcohol 3 to 4 times a day, which helps to isolate some bacteria. Erythromycin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, but it may not be effective against this type of surface bacterial infection. It is best to go to the hospital for proper disinfection treatment.
