Umbilical cord infected ?

Awww poor baby I would say yes definitely take him to the hospital or take him to see his doctor ASAP, you don’t want it to get worse and you don’t want to wonder the what if’s. We never like seeing our little honeys in pain. I hope everything turns out ok 🤍🤍

Personally I think that does look infected so I would take him to hospital. Best to be on the safe side and they should be able to get it sorted quickly. XX

Infected hun, call doc in the morning or 111 this evening they sort you out x

Yes go to the doctor or ER asap. Don’t try to treat it at home or put rubbing alcohol

Thank you for the comments 🙏 I’ve contacted 111 now just waiting for local treatment

Hey! My son had this, it looked like a weird red bump in his bellybutton and had fluid that would drain and crust on/around it! If you see something inside it is most likely a granuloma, no harm really but should still be taken care of, bring it up to your DR many of them will just go away on their own after a few weeks! My sons had to be treated with silver nitrate because it wouldn’t go away. These infections/bumps are often caused by accidental tugging of the stump before falling off by clothes, diapers, etc. easily fixable!

My baby’s kind of looked like this but it could be completely different! Our baby’s umbilical cord got tugged on during a photo shoot with a blanket and started coming off, after it did come off it was slightly puss filled and leaking on her outfits like this little ones. We had an appointment the next day or so, I talked to her doctor and she said it’s just the healing process but to clean it and dry it good after a real bath. I’d still talk to a doctor and hopefully the 111 helped too but hoping that puts your mind at ease a bit but stay on your toes at the same time mama. You’re doing great!

Ooft, I would wipe gently with warm salt water on a cotton roll and see a doctor tomorrow

we went to the doctor and the doctor say just that is not infection but granuloma. I hope is not painful for him and resolve very soon.

not painful at all! They will probably give it a month or two to clear up on its own and if it doesn’t then they may just remove it with silver nitrate! I watched them remove my sons and he had absolutely no reaction or discomfort!

I use salt treatment for 2 days and it dry up on its own. No worry now thank God 😩❤️
