Could Sore Bumps And Itchy Lower Back In 14 Month Old Be Due To Pacemaker?

My 14 month old toddler got a pacemaker in 5.5 weeks ago. I vaguely remember one of the surgical team talking about infections and how they may show up round the baby bottom?? My baby has a sore bum and v itchy lower back and buttocks - could this be related in any way to the pacemaker???

hi, thanks for the question. from your history it looks that your child has fungal dermatitis. it is not related to the pacemaker.
