Mom of a 4 yr 9 m old boy4 years ago
Q.

My baby is 1 month 25 days old, his belly button is not dried yet and looks like there is some extra growth. Doctor prescribed mupirocin ointment and I’m using it from last 1 week but no improvement. Is it normal or it require any treatment? I have read in internet that if we apply little salt over the belly button and cover it for 1 day then it will be cured. Is it safe to put salt on that. Please help me
