A nine-month-old baby has a red and damp navel with an outward protrusion, what is the reason?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is considered to be caused by umbilical inflammation. Iodophor can be used for external application and disinfection. Intravenous infusion treatment may be necessary if needed. Pay attention to local hygiene and keep it dry to prevent infection.
