A. there is a possibility that the child might be having some type of skin infection which is creating bad smell. you can apply t bact cream three times per day and if it is not improving in next 2 or 3 days kindly meet your doctor and do not apply any type of lotion powder or cream over it without medical consultation for a few days

A. Hello dear parent! There seems to be sweat and skin infection. Maintain a good personal hygiene and keep the area clean and dry. If the problem persists please consult your child’s doctor for a personal evaluation and seek further advice. Clarify all your concerns and follow your doctor’s advice diligently. Continue breastfeeding.
