I can understand your concern.But there is nothing to worry about it.
It may be mild abrasion caused by stools or wipes and washes.
If I were his treating doctor I would have advised PLAIN silver sulfadiazine cream,or if not available , any SOOTHING cream or lotion.Make sure they are nonirritating.
He would be feeling better within no time.
