Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Generally speaking, when there is fluid flowing from the navel of a small baby, the first thing to consider is the possibility of infection. You can buy povidone-iodine from a pharmacy to disinfect the root of the baby's navel with a cotton swab, twice a day. Pay attention to applying it thoroughly. If there is no improvement after doing so, it is recommended that you take the baby to the hospital for a direct examination by a doctor.
