A. Red Colour Rash over the body if present could be some allergy rashes which may be of sudden onset along with itching. or it could be viral exanthematous rash where the the onset of rashes is there along with fever or assosiated symptoms. and it could be some infection also which needs proper examination. Appldication of calamine lotivon or Anti itch lotion like Ritch lotion can be done for soothing along with antiallergic medications initially.

A. Hi mom. This can be due to diapers... Apply coconut oil on the thighs.. This will help to give relief.. Use good baby diapers.. U can buy #Babyhug diapers that are soft on skin and absorbs good amount of urine and keeps the baby dry preventing rashes.
