Hello,
Swelling & red rashes in the private parts of a baby may be due to infection, take care of her hygiene and do not use diaper for a couple of days. Use thin, soft cotton cloth as a diaper. Do continue to apply the anti-fungal ointment in the area affected. You can also apply Neosporin powder ans cream. However, you are suggested to get her clinically examined by a Pediatrician. It can be UTI. Get her Urinalysis done and treated at the earliest.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
