hello doctor. my 1 year baby boy has some rashes like this in his diaper area. he is crying a lot when we clean that area. plzz suggest me a remedy🙏🙏

A. Change your baby's diaper often. Before you replace the diaper, give your baby's bottom some bare air time. Leave a little breathing room in the diaper when it is on. Avoid perfumes and alcohol in soaps, scented baby wipes and other products that come in contact with your baby's diaper region that can irritate his skin. Spread a thick protective layer of ointment or cream on baby's bottom after cleaning it at changing time will prevent urine from reaching it and irritating the rash further. You can ask your doctor about what ointment or cream to use.
