Diaper rash, also known as red buttocks, is mostly caused by the damage of urine to the baby's skin. The baby's skin is delicate and easily develops red rashes when stimulated, which requires the mother to master some nursing methods. What should I do if my baby has diaper rash and itching?
1. When a baby develops diaper rash, it is best to reduce the time the baby spends using diapers. After using diapers, the baby's buttocks are exposed to a damp environment for a long time, which makes them susceptible to bacterial invasion in the urine and leads to diaper rash. At this time, it is necessary to let the baby's buttocks relax in dry air for a period of time, which is beneficial for the recovery of diaper rash.
2. It is best to apply buttock cream in advance when putting on diapers and using diapers for babies. The ingredients of the buttock cream are non irritating and additive free, which can effectively protect the baby's buttocks from urine damage. And after the baby defecates, it is also necessary to clean the baby's buttocks to reduce the time urine stays on the baby's buttocks.
3. If the diaper rash does not improve after a few days, it is necessary to go to the hospital and take some medication to alleviate this symptom. Severe cases can also lead to diaper rash developing into patches of erythema or small blisters. To avoid the occurrence of severe diaper rash, it is necessary to seek medical help as soon as possible to relieve the baby's condition.
