Diaper Rash is a common form of inflamed skin (diaper dermatitis) that will look like patches of bright red skin on your baby s bottom area. While diaper rash is normally thought to only affect infants and toddlers, but any individual wearing a diaper is prone to develop this dermatitis. Diaper dermatitis in the United States, symbolizes about 10%-20% of all skin disorders.

It s been shown that, at any point in time, there s a range between 7%-35% of children in this range of age is experiencing this skin rash.

The causes of this diaper rash, well there s actually several causes for this dermatitis. Contact diaper rash is simply a regular rash that appears flat, red, irritated skin. Intertrigo is a specific rash that happens within the skin folds and creases around the diaper area where the skin rubs together this normally appears red, burn-like appearance. Yeast rash is when the skins damaged; this happens more when antibiotics are used or the rash is prolonged, the appearance is red, raised, and patchy with sharp borders. Impetigo (staph and strep) is when bacteria invades the damaged skin, it appears as a coin-sized blisters or red raised patches that ooze a brown-yellowish colored crust.
