The cause of umbilical cord blood may be caused by the failure of umbilical cord ligation, and may also be caused by insufficient fetal gas or insufficient gas. When the umbilical cord is broken, the umbilical cord is too loosely tied, which may cause blood to infiltrate outside; the ligation is too tight, and the blood is damaged, which may also cause blood to seep outside. Or because of the warmth of the fetal heat, the blood is forced to run, so that the blood is broken from the umbilical cord soon after the umbilical cord is broken. Some children have insufficient congenital endowment, the qi is weak, the spleen does not control the blood, and the cord blood can also be caused.
