Neonatal Umbilical Infection

Yunnan Baiyao is applied to the baby's belly button, covered with gauze. First, clean the secretion from the baby's belly button with saline solution, then apply Yunnan Baiyao, and finally wrap it with a bandage. Change the dressing every other day.

Enuresis in Children

Take 10 pieces of fresh scallion white (about 2 inches long) and 12 grams of sulfur. Mash them into a paste and apply it to the child's belly button before bedtime. Cover it with gauze and fix it. Change the dressing every two days, and it can be used for about two weeks.

Night Sweating in Children

Take an appropriate amount of gallnut and grind it into fine powder. Every night before going to bed, take an appropriate amount of the powder and mix it with warm water to form a paste. Apply it to the child's belly button, cover it with a sterile gauze, and fix it with adhesive tape. Remove the paste the next morning. Change the dressing once a day, and usually, it takes 3-5 days to see results.

Constipation in Children

Take an appropriate amount of raw rhubarb, dry it, and grind it into fine powder. Take 10 grams of the powder each time, mix it with a suitable amount of white wine to form a paste, and apply it to the child's belly button. Cover it with a sterile gauze and fix it with adhesive tape. Then apply a hot water bag to the belly button for 10 minutes. Change the dressing once a day, and usually, it takes 3-5 days to see results.

Drooling in Children

Take 9 grams of walnut kernel, 6 grams of plantago seed, and 3 grams of licorice root. Grind the ingredients into fine powder. When using, mix an appropriate amount of the powder with a little vinegar to form a thin paste, apply it to the child's belly button, and then use a dampness-relieving analgesic ointment to fix it. During the application, you can intermittently apply a hot water bag to the belly button. Change the dressing once a day.
