1.
Avoid using plastic diapers. Instead, use a breathable diaper
such as Huggies®.
2.
As an alternative to baby wipes, try using a bowl of warm water and
paper towels.
3.
Use a diaper rash ointment at every diaper change such
as A+D Ointment®.
4.
Apply diaper rash ointment using powder free latex
gloves. (Most hospitals use Safe Skin®.)
5.
During bath times, apply our honey oatmeal soap to a
wash cloth first, before wiping down the infected
area. Do this only once, using a separate wash cloth to
clean baby's skin.
6.
For severe diaper rash, when the skin is oozy, (like
acne) consult your doctor about using a triple
antibiotic ointment such as Neosporin®, which
is available at Walgreens. It's the Original
Neosporin Neomycim and Polymyxin B Sulfate and
Bacitracin Zinc First Aid Antibiotic Ointment.
