Answer
Hello, what should I do, what kind of disease does my child have? Based on your description, the possibility of umbilical inflammation is high. Guidance: The umbilical depression is prone to accumulate fluid and dirt, creating a moist and warm environment that provides an opportunity for bacteria to grow. Mild umbilical inflammation may present with discharge from the umbilicus or purulent, cloudy secretions; in severe cases, bacteria can enter the bloodstream, causing sepsis. Lifestyle care: Always keep the area dry. If there are purulent secretions, it is recommended to use antibiotics. Maintain a normal diet, avoid cold and raw foods. Also, eat less spicy food. You can buy some digestive medicine for healthy digestion.
