Belly button not healing fast
My son who is 1 month old now- his belly button is getting better but has not healed completely yet. Is it normal to take such long time? Is there something I can apply to help it heal faster?
There is no redness , swelling or irritation - I think.

No worries if child is gaining weight , acitce and playful. If any local discharges or bleed then you have to investigate further
