What's that rash?
Article Abstract:
Older children can make the rash's worse by scratching and infecting it with dirty fingernails and young babies who can't scratch themselves may just be cranky and irritable. Creams that coat the skin reduce contact with urine and stool, saving little tushies from diaper rash.
