How to deal with newborn red buttocks?

Answer

If a newborn has red buttocks, parents should pay attention to the baby’s buttock cleaning and care. Firstly, use warm water to gently wash the baby’s buttocks, then apply tannic acid ointment or nappy rash cream, and keep the area dry and well-ventilated. Additionally, increase the frequency of changing diapers to reduce the irritation to the baby’s skin from moisture and friction.
