I have no idea how he got this, I change him constantly and use desitin or boudreauxs every time.

He has a slight case of diariha (teething I guess), he is 8 months old.

It isn't actually a rash, he is just very red on that skin inbetween his testies and his rectum. I mean he screams when I wipe it and apply cream.  I have nystatin crem...do you know if there is anything else that is safe to use that would stop it from stinging him?

 I don't know... Here is a bump.

Just for thought, but my daughter couldn't use scented wipes or soaps bc she would become red and scream when I changed her diaper..
Worth a try to not use anything scented??

Aveno Oatmeal bath is very soothing.. It restores the natural PH of the skin. I used it all the time with my kids. A 15 minute soak on warm water...pat dry and apply a nice thick layer of Desitin. Good Luck.

That is a good thought, he does seem to have sensitive skin. Thank you

Ok, and I bought some new powder last week that rubs on like a cream, but dries to a powder so they dont breathe in that stuff. I will try it, It is called baby silk by MD MOMS.   Thank you!
