Question

A two-month-old baby has had a red and swollen urinary opening with yellowish mucous discharge for 20 days. What should be done?

Answer

Based on the description, the child may be suffering from vulvitis, which causes regional redness and abnormal discharge. It is recommended to treat with symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication, such as oral cefixime granules, and to use Gelycin to clean the vulva externally, keeping the area dry and clean to promote healing and prevent complications.
