[|AI|]  Welcome to ChatDoctorMost cases of nappy rashes are due to a reaction of the skin to urine and poo (feces, stools, or motions). Non-response of your child to common nappy rash cream can be due to associated bacterial or fungal infection. A fungus called candida commonly thrives on the inflamed skin. (This is the germ that causes thrush.) Candida can cause a more inflamed rash which may include darker red spots spreading around the nappy area (nappy thrush). I would suggest creams having barrier properties along with antifungal and antibacterial properties. Also take following measures to prevent further damage;-Leave the nappy off as much as possible-Change nappy often.-Wipes are as effective as water. -After washing, make sure the babies bottom is properly Chat Doctor. -Do not use powder such as talcum powder.-Rub on a thin layer of barrier cream or ointment just before putting on each nappy. Do not apply too much, as this may reduce the breathability of the nappy.-Don't use tight-fitting plastic pants over diapers.
