Patient's question:
The baby is 7 months old and urinates about every 10 minutes. Sometimes right after changing the diaper, it gets wet again shortly. What could be the reason? Should I do a urine test? What kind of tests should I do?Doctor's answer:
The situation you described needs to rule out urinary tract infection and diaper rash. It is recommended to have a urine test done at the hospital. If the child's buttock skin is red and swollen, it is likely caused by diaper rash. You can apply a layer of ointment, such as tetracycline ointment, to the affected area after each cleaning. Eye ointment can also be used.
