[|Human|] HI, I am trying to find some information out about rashes in the anal area for my daughter. She is 2 and has a ring about 1/2 from her anus, about where the skin meets. Worried that it could be ringworm or maybe it is just irritation from where her skin meets. She hates it when I changer her diaper but doesn t seem to be itching or in pain when she is having her diaper changed.
[|AI|]  Hi I have just gone through your problem. Babies have very delicate and sensitive skin so that rashes and irritation around the anus and thighs are common. Specially due to diapers air cannot travel through there and Chat Doctor. To my patients I usually suggest take the diaper off for 1 to 2 hr in a day and frequently change the diaper. Lanolin is effective in healing the rashes unless sensitive to it.coconut oil is another best remedy to apply to prevent rubbing and healing the skin .many times scaly rash denotes the fungal infection I suggest candid dusting powders to my patients.  You can consult your pediatrician for the further treatment if any questions more you can reply. Blessings on your baby. Thank You
