Child Having Bed Wetting Problem, Pimples On Butt, Spreading To Genitals And Thighs. What Could This Be?
My 4 year old daughter has just recently started wetting the bed. She was fully potty trained until a couple of months ago. But recently she got what appeared to be a pimple on her butt. I didn t pay much attention at first because I thought it might be irritation from the pull ups at night time. I have been noticing more and more and they have spread from her butt to her genitals and down her inner thighs. They are painful and always pop. I have no idea what this could possibly be

Use a good toilet soap for the affected area.
Start applying antibacterial cream like fucidic acid or mupirocin over the lesions.
Do not try to rupture the lesions.
