#asktheexperts Hi mam, My son is 8 days old and his umbilical cord has fallen down today but he is having some puss in the navel. Could you please suggest some medication for the same.

A. Betadine you can apply but prior to that clean it properly and after that still if you see that the infection is there then apply this ointment and definitely you should get it examined by your doctor once for further assistance and if any other ointment would be more feasible
