Avatar n tn For about 2 weeks I have been fighting a rash in my left armpit. It is a red bumpy rash that is at times painful and itchy. It worsens and gets angry if I get hot and or sweat. It also seems to get more irritated near the end of the day when my deoderant has worn off. It it directly in the crease of my arm pit and is not blotchy or random but rather linear. It came on after I had worked outside at home one Saturday in the heat without putting on any deoderant in the morning as I usually do.
Avatar f tn How long shud a diaper rash last?? My 9 month old the tip of his penis looks swollen a lil n on the sides of his balls he has like red bumps. I been putting the diaper rash cream it goes away bt then comes back worse. Idk if I shud get him checked att the hospital.
Avatar n tn I told him one or two of your readers recommended Bactroban mupirocin, but he dismissed that advice for the Lotrimin. I need to hear from more readers who have had success with Bactroban so I can convince him to prescribe if for me. Otherwise?? Help! Help!
Avatar n tn I would suggest that you apply calamine lotion and a simple antimicrobial cream like Bactroban or Neosporin on the rash and keep the area clean.I f the symptoms persist then topical steroids and oral antibiotics may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case. I hope it helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how your son is doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
Avatar f tn Could just be a regular diaper rash, butif it's not going away it could be a yeast diaper rash. If regular diaper cream doesn't clear it up within a few days, talk to his doctor. You may need a special topical cream (possibly Nystatin cream) if it's a yeast diaper rash. You could try a little cornstarch to keep his bum dry and change his diaper often. Also, keep it clean and give it some time to air dry too.
Avatar f tn I also doubt that it is an allergic reaction to the bactroban- I would expect to see a rash, hives, or redness at the site you were applying it to. Your symptoms could indicate an infection, though I would expect you to have a fever of 101 or more. At this point I think you should contact the Dr. who prescribed your bactroban to see if your culture results are back and to let them know about your continued symptoms.
Avatar m tn ENT said I had some colonies in nose soUsed Bacrtoban for 3 days and slight pain in my nose went away per ENT. I stopped the bactroban after 3 days because I was not sleeping but I was also using Nasocort and maybe that was the culprit. Cold gone sinus not infected but having some pain that feels like a tooth ache and slight tickle or sting in nostrils when breathing. Left septum is a little enlarged.
Avatar n tn I swear by the brand Butt Paste for all diaper rashes. It's the only thing that worked for my daughter. Yes I agree let it air out for a little bit and stop with the powder.
Avatar n tn I went back to the doctor straight away and he said it was a rash caused by the Bactroban Cream and he gave me Dovate Cream to apply on the rash area. He said I should use it on my chin as well and that the infection (Cellulitis) has gone and it is just scar tissue. What I would like to know is - Is this a rash from Bactroban Cream as it is not continuos spreading down my chin but a healthy skin layer and then the rash?
Avatar f tn Hello, I cannot confirm anything without examination,but it can be folliculitis,seat dermatitis,heat rash,diaper rash,contact dermatitis or psoriasis.Looking at the age of the child,diaper or heat rash is a possibility. Allow your son to wear cotton undergarments and keep the buttocks clean and hygienic.Also after washing the area with water,pat dry the buttocks.Pls do not apply any cream on the byttocks as it will leda to further clogging of pores.You can however apply a light dusting powder.
938326 tn?1300878804 My little one(10 months) has had a terrible bum rash(scaling, raw and extremely uncomfortable for her) due to diarreah. I am a firm believer in cornstarch until this time when it didnt seem to work. I had gotten a prescription from the dr for canesten. I took it in and the script was going to cost 40 dollars. The pharmacist secretly(without having a problem paying full cost) told me of the same product for 12 dollars.

9182722 tn?1403784024 The Vaseline is a lubricant to help keep his bottom dry to prevent more rash, the fungal/yeast creams help because many times baby will have test contributing to the rash(yes even boys) and the diaper cream helps with the rash too obviously and the cortisone helps with inflammation (don't use too much it's a steroid), I would also add you should call and confirm(quick call should be fine) with his doctor that this will be okay for your baby (I sing know your baby or any medical conditio
1194973 tn?1385503904 Does anyone know if a diaper rash can itch? Or is it possible a yeast infection can? It seems slightly silly to call her doctor about it, so I was hoping to get an answer from you ladies.
3930380 tn?1357887113 So my daughter is 2 weeks old I breastfeed her and she's been having a rash I can't get rid of its on her butt and really red and blustered I feel so bad when I change her cuz I know it hurts her. I've tried coconut oil, jojoba oil, destitin, corn starch, and letting her air out without a diaper for awhile and nothing seems to help. I've even used just water and paper towels instead of wet wipes to c if that's what's been bugging her cuz my first was allergic to them.
Avatar f tn Sorry your little one is having diaper rash. My first daughter got diaper rash when I tried being fancy and bought her Huggies Supreme. I realized she was allergic to it and I switched her to LUVS. I've always used this powder call Caldesene, its in a pink bottle and you can find it in any CVS or Walgreens. It is so good it formulated to keep moisture away from their skin. You can use it on prickly heat too.
Avatar f tn What is the best cream i can use for diaper rash ?? My 15 month daughter got 1 and idk what to put on her ..

Avatar f tn My husband has had a rash under his arm for about 10 days, that is pinky red in colour, risen, itchy, seems to ooze a slimy substance and gives off a foul smell... we have tried a fungal cream called Daktozin, Bactroban and he tried putting the nappy rash cream - Sudocream on and it started to burn so he washed it off, but nothing has worked so I was wondering if you would be able to help me with what this could be?
Avatar f tn Desitin (if boy and getting circumsized) dreft, nursing cover, extra sheets, waterproof mattress pad, pacifier clip, wet ones wipes for diaper bag, pacifier wipes, diaper bag, changing pad for diaper bag
676912 tn?1332812551 D and baby powder, anyone know what else can make a diaper rash go away? DS has had one for three days now, and cries the most heartbreaking cry when I change his dirty diapers, because it hurts him....I don't know what else to do.
Avatar m tn My son is 2 months almost 3 and he has the worst diaper rash ive ever seen. It all started when he got some kind of virus which we had to go to emergency room for (cause of all the diarrhea) and they told us that it "just needed to run it course". well since hes had this virus (and its been for several weeks) hes had nothing but diarrhea and this diaper rash is steadily getting worse. It's at the point if you wipe it with anything it starts bleeding.
