Recommended cord care is use of CHLORHEXIDINE GEL applied once daily on the cord for 7 days or till the cord drops. Where CHLORHEXIDINE GEL is not available, Use of METHYLATED SPIRIT applied SEVERAL TIMES a day say every 4 hours or at every diaper change is the second best
Once the cord has fallen, just clean with moko methylated spirit or Chlorxy -G gel if still raw or yet to heal completely or become like normal skin.No need for any special care once it has healed fully and become like normal skin.
