Question
I am in my postpartum period and just noticed that my daughter’s labia minora is a bit red. What could this be?
Answer
When encountering a child with a severe diaper rash, parents should be instructed to temporarily discontinue the use of diapers, allowing the child’s buttocks to be exposed to the air. Choose cotton cloth for diapers and change them frequently. Diapers should be washed and boiled, then dried in the sun before use. Frequent urination is recommended to prevent urine from wetting the skin. If the child’s condition is severe now, it is still advisable to take the child to the hospital for examination and treatment to avoid exacerbation later.
