Patient's question:
What causes the diaper rash on a newborn's buttocks? I'm very worried. My child has had this for a long time, and I'm afraid it will get worse.Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, if the child has red buttocks, it is likely to be diaper rash. It is recommended to clean the buttocks with clean water after each bowel movement, avoid using disposable diapers, and switch to pure cotton diapers, which have better breathability. The symptoms you mentioned may also be caused by dry stools. The specific cause should be checked by taking the child to a local hospital for a detailed examination.
