Patient's question:
Previously, there was always liquid in the seam of the navel. Today, the liquid suddenly became slightly reddish, but it doesn't hurt. I want to know what this is, thank you.Doctor's answer:
Usually associated with corditis, the indented area of the umbilical cord is prone to accumulating moisture and dirt, and a damp, warm environment provides an opportunity for bacterial growth and reproduction. Instructions: For mild umbilical cord fungus infection, use a 2% gentian violet solution to keep the cord dry, and use antibiotics when there is purulent discharge. Those with severe cases should seek hospital treatment. You can go to the hospital for a check-up. If you have an infection, treat it. Additional question: Family history?
