Suggest Treatment For Red Rashes On Genitals
Can be due to sweat and wetness.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The red rashes in the image attached can be due to constant wetness in the area. Avoid keeping the baby in diapers all the time. The genitalia also needs to be exposed to air for some time after cleaning. With proper care such rashes usually improve in 7-10 days.
For improvement of these rashes you can apply coconut oil or aloe vear gel on the area. Using a 1% hydrocortisone gel will also help.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Yes it is normal.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
It is normal during pregnancy and breast feeding for our breast glands to undergo hypertrophy that causes an increase in the breast size. This increase in the size of breast causes stretch marks on the skin to develop. These are harmless marks but are difficult to revert back to normal skin.
Regards.
The size decreases to some extent.
Detailed Answer:
The increased breast usually decreases to some extent after the breast feeding is stopped. But usually it does not reduce back to the pre pregnancy levels.
Regards.
Feed the baby from each breast alternately.
Detailed Answer:
The sudden pain in the breast and nipples can be due to breast engorgement. It is best to feed your baby from alternate breasts each time. Doing a hot compress after breast feeding will also help in decreasing the pain and heaviness. There is no need to worry as long as there is no palpable lump or extreme pain with swelling in the breast.

A normal distended gland.
Detailed Answer:
The little lump that goes away on pressing while feeding is likely to be a distended gland. This is not worrisome and is a normal finding.
