Question
How to prevent diaper rash?
Answer
A newborn’s skin is extremely delicate. If it remains soaked in urine or becomes damp due to an airtight diaper, the buttocks may develop red rashes or become rough, which are symptoms of diaper rash. If a baby wears a wet or soiled diaper for a long time, the skin can become irritated, leading to the development of diaper rash. Although most babies may experience diaper rash, some children may be more sensitive to this condition. If a baby’s buttocks have painful red swellings, it may indicate a diaper rash. Diaper cream does not prevent the growth of bacteria or fungi, so it is recommended to use products with physical antibacterial properties. It is still advisable to take the child to the hospital for treatment.
