Should the navel be covered when the umbilical needle is pricked?
Yes The navel is a special part of the human body, connecting the abdominal cavity with the outside world, and it is a channel for harmful substances such as bacteria and viruses to invade the human body. If the navel is infected, it will cause serious diseases such as peritonitis and septicemia. Therefore, when the navel is pricked, the navel must be covered to prevent navel infection.
