Question

In pediatrics, can a baby’s small labia adhesions heal on their own?

Answer

In pediatrics, small labia adhesions in babies are typically caused by chronic inflammation. It is recommended to clean the baby’s genital area with potassium permanganate after they urinate to maintain hygiene. If necessary, a small amount of symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be taken. Generally, with proper hygiene, the occurrence of these adhesions can be reduced.
