Cloth Vlog: Diaper Rash


If you are experiencing diaper rashes that resemble the following, see your doctor: (Information from AskDrSears.com – you can also find more information about Yeast Rashes from there) Intertrigo – a rash that occurs within the skin folds and creases around the diaper area where the skin rubs together. Appearance – Heat and moisture mixed with urine cause a red, burn-like appearance. Treatment – regular white petroleum diaper ointment. Impetigo – this occurs when bacteria invade the damaged skin. Appearance – coin-sized blisters or red raised patches that ooze a honey-colored crust. Treatment – prescription antibiotic ointment as well as the above general measures. Seborrhea – an inflammatory condition that can affect different parts of the body, but can be especially severe in the diaper area. Appearance – a big, red, sharply demarcated patch over the groin, genitalia, and lower abdomen. It can be more raised, rough, thick, and greasy than the other rashes. Treatment – hydrocortisone 1% cream (over-the-counter) 2 – 3 times a day. Don’t use more than a week unless directed by your doctor.

baby fussy and have a diaper rash on whole milk?

my baby was switched to whole milk and now she has a diaper rash but 2% doesnt do it to her. she is fussy and has a diaper rash too. what should i do?

I have chronic eczema, and I have found nothing that really helps it, at least not long term. It is an extremely dry, extremely itchy red rash, and no matter what my doctor’s try, nothing seems to last. I use Vaseline Petroleum Jelly as a moisturizer. I use prescription strength Lidex cream. I use Prednisone when it gets too bad, and I haven’t found anything to use which is helpful for the itch. Any suggestions would be welcome.
