Diaper “ rash”, atopic dermatitis /heat rash “

Diaper “rash” My little one seem to have gotten something on the public area looking like a rash or skin infection - and I’m suspecting it’s from using Costco wipes. Anybody had rash from using wipes. What helped it ? Pediatrician suggested lotrimin . I’ve heard about desitin from others. Need help!!! atopic dermatitis /heat rash Also 3 month seem to have gotten heat rash from an unavoidable sun exposure one day this week. Anything you used that helped with it . Pediatrician suggested aquaphor + cortaid (1% hydrocortisone). I’ve heard others say they bathe in a little bit of baking soda .

Swap to using cotton pads and water for wiping little ones area and I swear by sudocreme for all types of rashes/dermatitis

For the nappy rash giving it "air time" was the one thing that worked best for my LO. Do make sure you are drying their genitals very well before applying any creams too. We did use Sudocrem and Metanium, and the Metanium was working better than Sudocrem, but I'm not sure if either is available in the US (we are in the UK). As for the heat rash, I don't have any experience with it, but we did end up using a steroid cream for the nappy rash because it was really bad and it helped a lot, so I reckon you should be fine to use it. The recommendation though was not to use it for more than 5 days and to use it only once a day because baby's skin is quite delicate, so if you end up using it make sure to follow medical advice on how long to use it for. And of course the usual things would be to make sure baby is in loose clothing, that is well hydrated (if breastfeeding you can offer some extra feeds throughout the day) and avoid using any bubbles, soaps or gels when bathing (just top n tail kinda thing).
