The best way to treat baby's red buttocks

In daily life, if the mother does not take good care of the child, the child's buttocks may be flooded. At this time, the buttocks will appear red, and even the skin will be broken. The baby's skin is relatively delicate and is prone to such symptoms. At this time, you must take good care of the baby and change the diaper in time. If the skin is broken, you must prevent infection and apply some anti-inflammatory ointment.

What to do if the baby's butt is red and cracked

1. Pay attention to take good care of your baby. Change the diaper in time if it is wet and keep the area dry.

2. When red buttocks appear, parents should take immediate measures, first clean it, then apply some tannic acid ointment on the affected area. If erosion has occurred, 1% gentian violet can be used locally.

3. When washing your baby's buttocks, use warm water instead of soap to reduce local irritation.

4. If your baby cries loudly when you use warm water to wash him, you can also try to let the baby sit in a basin of warm water to wash.

5. To prevent the diaper from soaking the bedding, you can put a small cotton pad or cloth pad under the diaper.

6. If possible, the baby's buttocks should be exposed to the air for a period of time to help the rash disappear. In hot summer or when the room temperature is high, the buttocks can be completely exposed to keep the newborn baby's buttocks dry at all times.

7. Avoid using talcum powder. Because powder tends to harden after absorbing water, it not only fails to keep the area dry, but also irritates the baby's skin.

2. Improper cleaning of the baby’s butt.

Some babies have diarrhea due to lactose intolerance or various other reasons. At this time, the irritants in the feces and urine will also make the baby's buttocks red. If the baby has diarrhea, parents must take good care of cleaning the baby's butt.
