I was putting ointment on it a&d for two days to see should i be concerned also she grinds herself to sleep like humps the bed.
[|AI|]  Thank you for posting your question. The redness that your have noticed on the labia major of your child is likely to be a diaper rash. It maybe avoided by frequent changing of diapers, cleaning of the area and keeping the area Chat Doctor.  Also while cleaning make sure you clean from front to back i.e. vagina to anus. This would prevent any infection from the anal canal to affect the vagina. Apart from that, you may try applying any zinc oxide containing rash cream around the vaginal opening(not inside). Having said, so I suggest you also keep a watch for any discharge from the opening, difficulty in passing urine or increase in rash in which case a medical consultation would be advisable. Try to prevent her from itching the area as it may exacerbate the rash. If you have any more doubt do write back.
