Umbelical code
Hi
My baby was born on July 30th and his umbelical code fall on aug 11. Still it is oozing with some clear fluid some time in day time. It does not look infected and does not have any bad smell. But my concern is why is it oozing always. Is there any thing to worry.? Please help
Hello
Umbilical area takes about on week for fully dry up.
Keep it clean with antiseptic solutions mixed with water and then apply antibiotics powder over it.
Please keep the area dry during bath also.
If blood is coming frequently, then consult your doctor or online consultation.
Take care.
