Why is my toddler's belly button red inside?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Belly button: Your toddler may have a low grade infection in his belly button. Have him soak in a bath of warm soapy water to which you have added 3 tablespoons of bleach. After the bath apply an antibiotic ointment. Do this 2-3 times daily
