SYMPTOMS, CAUSES AND
TREATMENT

Skin in the diaper area i.e. buttocks, thighs and
genitals becomes red, sore, and tender-looking.
2.
Texture of the skin changes from normal to bumpy,
rough and itchy.

boils, pimples and pus-filled sores may also occur.

Contact of the wet diaper with the skin for long
hours are a common cause of the rashes as the
chemicals of urine and feces makes up moisture.
As this moisture comes in contact with the skin it
causes irritation and damage hence resulting in the
Diaper Dermatitis.

If the diaper is not of proper size or tight-fitting then
the friction caused due to the rubbing of the skin
with the diaper may lead to diaper rash. This can
get worse if the diaper is wet.
3.
The moist and warm surrounding formed due to the
diaper is a perfect place for bacteria and yeast to
breed. The bacterial or the fungal infections are
also a cause for diaper rashes.
4.
People with sensitive skin are more prone to such
diaper dermatitis.
TREATME

on the diaper.
