Diaper Rash

Diaper rash is a common skin condition that affects babies and toddlers who are wearing diapers. The rash is usually red and bumpy, and can sometimes be itchy or sore. Some babies also get diaper rash when they start eating solid foods. There are many things that can cause diaper rash, including wet diapers, diarrhea, and chafing from tight diapers or clothes.

Most cases of diaper rash can be treated at home. The best way to prevent diaper rash is to keep your baby's skin dry and clean. Change your baby's diaper often, and avoid using harsh soaps or lotions. If your baby's diaper rash doesn't go away after a few days, or if it seems to be getting worse, talk to your doctor.
