Suggest Treatment For Diaper Rashes And A Lump On Butt Cheek
My son is a year old and he wouldnt stop crying. When i picked him up, he squeezed me really tight and cried louder. So i figured it was a diaper rash. I changed him and he was sore. I put some rash medication on it and as i was applying it, in the inside of his booty cheek, i felt a nice size lump. What does this mean? What should i do?

Thanks for the query.
For diaper rash you can use the ezinapi cream.
Do not rub the area, let it dry on its own.
Lump may be abcess if it is painful, reddish, with fever.
If it is so you need to complete the course of amoxycillin after consulting a doctor.
Till then try fusidic acid local application on the lump.
Hope i helped you.
