Nappy rash

Hi, my little one has never had rashes but ever since his back teeth have started to come in he seems to get a really bad nappy rash. I have been using sudocrem and it does clear it but I’m wondering if there’s anything stronger that I can get to help ease the pain for him?

Thanks in advance☺️

It sounds like what you're using is working, but if you're worried you can always give hop on to the Online Drop In and have a chat with someone from the Child Health Team. It's every day 10am - 11am at justonenorfolk.nhs.uk/our-s...

Or maybe some other parents have some ideas. It's a long time since mine were in nappies!

Hi, aw bless him. Nappy rash pain can be so sore. I hope you manage to get the extra advice you needed. I know for us the teething always did seem to add to things being slightly worse - especially the back teeth which are so painful I think for them. I always wondered if it was something to do with the extra dribbling affecting the nappy. Or something like that🤔.

Apart from seeing someone when it got too bad, I also did nappy off times to let the skin get fresh air to dry when I could. And also I really watched any products I bathed them with - more than usual. So I probably went to washing with more Emollient type products Which were super slippy but calming.

I hope those back teeth come through soon x

Good morning

Nappy rash is horrible. My little boy stuffers a lot, we use metanium it's in a yellow tube some supermarket sell it if not the pharmacy do. We found this was the only cream that works well for us.
