Suggest Treatment For Nappy Rash
Hi my 22 mth old daughter has developed a rash in her diaper area. It looks like patches of red full of raised bumps. It feels rough to the touch and I believe it s itchy because she keeps reaching in her diaper. We have been potty training recently and have spent time undiapered to make getting to the potty easier. Should I take her to the pediatrician?

hi! diaper rash is a common problem. you can use any over the counter diaper rash cream. use it liberally over the diaper area and give some diaper free time. try using cloth diapers for some days. use water wipes and avoid the ones with chemicals and fragrance. if you notice worsening of the rash you should visit a dermatologist.
