How to take care of baby’s buttocks Little babies within one year of age have delicate skin, and a little carelessness in daily care can lead to red buttocks, especially when there is diarrhea, thin green stools, and thicker stools, it is easier to have red buttocks, skin infections, or rashes, which are often the result of improper care. When your baby defecates, please clean up as soon as possible! When cleaning baby’s excrement, do not use dry or wet wipes and other chemical fiber products to wipe the skin of the child’s buttocks, because the dry and wet tissues commonly used by parents nowadays are rough in texture and there are many chemical additives in the tissues (such as bleach, preservatives, etc., and if you are not careful, you may encounter “toxic tissues”), which can easily lead to skin allergy, skin infection, or skin corrosion. These substances can easily lead to skin allergies, skin infections, or skin corrosion, which is also the main cause of many babies and children’s easy red bottom. Proper skin care of the buttocks can reduce the occurrence of red buttocks. The correct way to take care of the buttocks of infants and toddlers is to rinse the buttocks with running water as soon as possible after the child is found to have excreted stool, with the water temperature 2~3 degrees lower than the usual bathing water temperature. If the stool is not easy to clean, clean it up by hand. After rinsing, use a clean, soft cotton cloth or gauze to gently dry the water and avoid wiping the skin as hard as possible, and finally, dry the child’s skin with a hair dryer. Finally, you can choose to apply a small amount of buttock care products. If the skin on the buttocks has vesicles and oozing, you can use Bactrim or eye ointment under the guidance of a doctor. Parents should be highly alert to the possibility of diaper allergy or food allergy if the baby still has recurrent red buttocks after the correct treatment mentioned above.
