Newborn diaper rash is the most common issue in newborn care. Newborns have frequent urination and bowel movements, and their buttocks are soaked in urine for a long time. If the buttocks are not rinsed with water after defecation and if the diaper has poor breathability, it can cause and worsen diaper rash.
Diaper rash can cause local skin damage, bacterial invasion, anal abscess, and difficulty in defecation. The prevention methods for diaper rash are as follows: after the baby defecates, rinse the buttocks with water in a timely manner; use diapers with good breathability and do not use plastic sheets; keep track of the baby's bowel movement regularity and change the diaper promptly. Once diaper rash is noticed, after rinsing the baby's buttocks each time, apply tannic acid ointment to prevent it from being soaked in urine. Do not use baby powder.
