Doctor's answer:
The baby's private parts were oiled with Sichuan pepper oil. After the baby's external genitalia became red, the parents were indeed very distressed. At this time, what parents should do is to promptly carry out nursing care to help the baby get rid of the disease as soon as possible. In terms of treatment, it should be oiled with Sichuan pepper oil. After applying Sichuan pepper oil for a period of time, it is helpful for symptom relief. For some babies, symptoms may be relieved after applying it.Medication treatment. If the baby's external genitalia become red occasionally, medication is not necessary. However, if it occurs frequently, medication is required. As for what medication the baby should use, it is recommended to follow the doctor's advice and use it under the guidance of a doctor. What needs to be done is not to use medication casually, as casual use is not beneficial for the baby's health. Additionally, during medication, it is also important to maintain cleanliness and proper care of the affected area.
