Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am having this whiteish discharge from my belly button it doesn t hurt but I notice it the other day. I did a little research about the cord not being cut right or something like that. however I do know that when i was burn my emblical cord was half way detached through out the pregnancy. what could this mean?
HI Well come to HCM Just forget about the cord because this is out of question now, but the present problem of discharge from umbilicus could be due to infection and some time this because of the infection and this might be happening due to poor hygiene, now all the collection need be drained with some dust particles and for that you need to see the surgeon, anti-biotic may be needed, hope this information helps, take care.
