Diaper rashes
My daughter who is 4month old cries sometimes to pee or to pass stool. Diaper rashes were extreme when applied doctor suggested siloderm ointment.
So stopped using it and using B4 Nappi cream. But still she suffers. I clean the nappy area and dry it and then apply it. Since her stool count(around 10times) is still high(a lil stool comes out while sneezing or passing gas), I had to apply more than 5 times a day. I feel this softens the skin and worsens the rashes. Please suggest how to handle this rashes. No doctor suggestion helped until now.

Most of these children have lactose intolerance, try changing Milk to Isomil/Nusobee, stool frequency will come down and rashes will subside.

you can use diaper /pemper.
but not all the times of the day
give diaper free time frequently in a day
if possible use cotton langot
it will help to decrease diaper rash if any
Always check every 2 to 3 hourly for urine and motion and change immediately once baby pass urine or motion
If rash persistant then
Use rashfree cream over rash area 3 -4 times a day.
It will help.
