Question

The baby’s bottom is red, with red, hard lumps on both sides near the anus.

Answer

Condition Analysis: The baby’s bottom area shows skin erythema and rash, which can be treated with antiseptic cod liver oil. Guidance: If the rash has blisters, apply zinc oxide ointment. If there is ulceration or skin desquamation in the affected area, apply cod liver oil and zinc oxide paste. In case of secondary bacterial infection, please consult a doctor. Children are vulnerable to diaper dermatitis, so parents must take their child to the hospital for treatment immediately. Avoid self-medication to alleviate symptoms. Parents should provide enough care and attention to their children and help them receive timely treatment for the disease.
