Dr. P's Butt Balm for persistent diaper rash due to irritation
If you are certain your baby's persistent red yucky diaper rash is due to irritation (and not, for example, from a bacterial infection) and the usual over-the-counter creams haven't done the trick and you are at your wit's end and your baby is uncomfortable, not to worry. Try using Dr. P's Butt Balm.
Here's how to make it and use it:
- Thoroughly mix together 1/4 zinc oxide with 3/4 A&D (or similar) ointment. If yeast is present, you can mix in 1/4 yeast cream (like Nystatin) and decrease A&D.
- Apply liberally.
- The key is not to completely wipe off the butt balm with each diaper change!
- Wipe the top layer off.
- If the bottom thin layer on the skin is clean, leave it on and apply more over it.
- If the balm on the skin is soiled, use an oil filled cotton swab to gently wipe it off before applying a new layer.
Dr. P's Pearl: When you need to clean the balm completely off the skin, always use a cotton swab with oil. Gently wipe the balm away (sometimes the balm is sticky and wiping it off too hard irritates the skin).
Good luck! Let me know on my message board if you try and if it works!
