Patient's question:
The baby is 15 days old and has recently developed redness around the anus. Every time they have a bowel movement, it's like residue without stickiness. Treatment history and effectiveness: None. What kind of help is desired: How to solve the redness around the anus?Doctor's answer:
In this case of the child, diaper rash is often caused by improper care. It is recommended to ensure the child is not exposed to cold while minimizing the tightness of the diaper. When cleaning the buttocks, it is best to use water rather than a cloth. If a cloth is used, avoid rubbing and gently pat instead, as the child's delicate skin may be easily broken. To prevent diaper rash, apply a layer of ointment, such as diaper cream, after each cleaning and make sure to let the diaper air out promptly.
