  4. Umbilical granuloma. Treatment for this?

Umbilical granuloma

2019-09-17 18:37:47
My daughter (18months) has umbilical granuloma from birth. We did common salt treatment but it did not help. Her belly button turns reddish sometimes, sometimes it will be moist, sometimes mocus formation. She scratches that area a lot and frequent scrating makes it worst. We are advised to go for a surgery now. I'm worried about it. Is there any other treatment for this ?
