1950374 tn?1332384136 d let her air dry a bit and put on a dry diaper. When needed, we used a diaper rash cream, or let her have some tummy time without a diaper on a blanket we didn't mind soiling. This time, we're having a boy. I asked a friend about caring for the foreskin and she said that she just pulls it back a bit and wipes with a wet cloth each day. If you're not sure you're doing the best job you could, feel free to ask the postpartum nurses.
Avatar n tn I would try Desitin, the same ointment used for a baby's diaper rash. You may have diaper rash without the diaper. Let us know what happens.
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
Avatar n tn My daughter got a diaper rash last month when she was 10 months old - it looked really bad. I took her to doc and she said it's a yeast infection and prescribed a cream. I used it on her for almost 1 month. It went away, but now she's 11 months old and it's seems like the rash is creeping up every time she goes poopy - even if I change her 2 mintues later (right after she's done). What could it be?
Avatar n tn I put on some organic lotion I purchased at the healthfood store that I have used before. I put it on my legs and all over my face. I got a rash, but only on my cheeks and forehead. Ironically, the only place I got the rash is where my headache has been. WEIRD. I tried it again and the same thing occured. Doctors also think I have fibromyalgia/cfs.
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.
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.

4654179 tn?1595183520 My poor baby has suffered on and off with diaper rash. I've changed diaper brands and have been using Destin religiously. Any ideas that could help?
3930380 tn?1357887113 Make sure to keep her clean and dry. Bath her before bed time and use burst bees diaper rash ointment. With my daughter she rarely got diaper rash but when she did it sees nothing would make it go away we literally bought a bottle of every ointment and burst bees was the only thing that would make a difference. Walmart and target have it.

Avatar f tn diapers asap I bought huggies n ever since tht my sons had a diaper rash.? Has anyone experienced this too?
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 n tn It is important to make sure you wash the area more than once a day with warm water and a wash cloth. After wards put diaper rash cream on the area avoiding the tip of your penis to ensure that you don't get any in the urethra. It may sound weird to use diaper rash cream but it is composed of chemicals that are gentle enough to apply to your genitals without causing harm.
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.
94902 tn?1330479667 A. DIAPERS - Pampers - everything else has leaked like crazy and had blowouts. Using Swaddlers for now, but have bought Cruisers for the next stage. Wish I could cloth diaper but my hubby says NO! B. WIPES - Pampers and Huggies so far. Cash hasn't had any problems with these, so I just use whatever I have a coupon for. C.
178590 tn?1294176767 etc...environmental costs..etc...diaper rash cream (since there tends to be more diaper rash with cloth than disposable...etc.. After reading it, both have pros and cons equally. Have you sent off to Luvs, Pampers, and Huggies for free diapers? They will send coupons for a free pack when you send them proof of having twins. In addition, they will send you GOOD coupons also..as in $5, $2 off. Our Kroger has packs of Pampers diapers this week for $8.99 if you buy three packs...
Avatar n tn my 19 month old daughter ( due for the 18 month shot, but otherwise utd), who is not in daycare has developed a weird rash. started in the diaper area but didn't quite look like your typical diaper rash, then spread up her body and cover her front and back torso, tons around her neck, armpit, upper inner thigh (groin), and starting to creep one or two on her face and down the arm and leg. this is going on 4+ weeks.
Avatar f tn I had the tail end of one around that time and in my sleep I scratched and in my sleep deprivation I did not wash (seriously for the first time) my hands before changing her diaper. This rash persistant diaper rash came two weeks later and my heart sunk and I filled with terror. I am curious you say hav is not a super contagious virus but I feel like so much of what I have read says it is. Am I missing something?
Avatar f tn We were told by our pediatrician to be careful with what wipes we used since a lot of the ingredients are not tested for long term effects. After our daughter had a diaper rash at 5 weeks I was told not to use wipes while the rash healed. I stopped using them and now she's 21 months and I never used them again. I tried homemade wipes with a roll of Viva paper towels cut in half, but they got moldy before I used them all. GROSS. So I just use soap, water and a wash cloth for poopies.
