How many months can a baby not have their umbilical cord tied?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

After the umbilical cord naturally falls off, the umbilical stump may be slightly moist and have a small amount of milky-like fluid seeping out. This is due to the surface of the umbilical cord not being fully healed yet, and the fluid leaking from the granulation tissue. Dinggui Er patch is used to treat infantile diarrhea, and it is to use on broken skin of the umbilical area. Therefore, it cannot be used at this time.
