Diaper rash, commonly known as red buttocks, is one of the common skin diseases in infants, usually occurring in the area where the baby is wrapped in diapers. In other words, this is a skin inflammatory lesion, which is a common skin inflammation in newborns. So, how can a child's red buttocks be improved?
When a child develops red buttocks, it may be due to diaper rash or an allergic reaction. When allergic to diapers, it is important to change the type of diaper for the child. The child's buttocks should be ventilated and breathable. When necessary, you can give your child some buttock cream. It's best to let your child's buttocks air dry for a while every day to avoid skin to urine contact.
Red buttocks in children may also be caused by inadequate local skin hygiene care, leading to irritation during urination and defecation, as well as skin inflammation. Parents can take their children to the pediatric surgery department of the hospital for examination and treatment according to the condition. Pay attention to skin hygiene and avoid prolonged use of diapers to prevent abnormal effects.
If the child only has simple diaper dermatitis, they can apply some baby skincare products. If there is an infection, they need to apply some hormone free ointment. Because hormones can cause a decrease in local skin resistance in children, exacerbating secondary infections, pigmentation, and other issues, it is recommended to consult a doctor before deciding whether to use them. Diapers with urine should be boiled in hot water and washed with clean water; Diapers with feces can be washed with non alkaline items such as soap and then placed in the sun to dry.
