Zhou Jing, Department of Dermatology, Shanghai Children’s Hospital: This may be diaper dermatitis, mostly due to excrement irritation of the skin or local bacterial or fungal infection caused by inappropriate diaper changing. Use a diaper with good breathability. If this treatment is not good for a week, go to the hospital for a fungal culture.
