My 18-month-old daughter has had an umbilical granuloma since birth. We tried the common salt treatment but it didn't work. Her belly button gets red sometimes, stays moist, and has mucus buildup. She scratches it a lot, making it worse. Doctors are suggesting surgery now, but I'm really worried are there any other treatment options we can try first?

While surgical excision is an option for umbilical granulomas, it's not always the first approach. Other treatments, like silver nitrate, can be effective, especially if applied by a healthcare professional. It's also important to maintain good hygiene, keep the area dry, and avoid harsh treatments like scrubbing.
