Does anyone know how to clear up diaper rash that hasn't been cleared by any store bought creams?

air dry the area. Try to let them go without a diaper for 10 min. or so. Lay the baby on towel. You may need to stop using baby wipes if you are, as that will irriate the rash further. Just use wet paper towels or warm wash cloth to clean the area, then let air dry. Your baby may also have a yeast infection, which wont clear up by itself usually, you will see little red dots in areas, this is yeast and you need to use nystatin from your baby's dr. Stop using baby wipes for 2 days, you'll be surprised of the results u get.Does anyone know how to clear up diaper rash that hasn't been cleared by any store bought creams?

TAKE A LARGE CLIPPING FROM THE ALOE VERA PLANT AND SPLIT IT WITH A KNIFE. LAY THIS ON TOP OF THE AREA FOR 20 MINS. LEAVE DIAPER OFF FOR 1 TO 2 HOURS. WORKS GREAT!!
I had 2 babies with very sensitive butts. The only way to cure the rash, is to go buy very soft wash cloths, and dial anti-bacterial soap. Use warm water and soap EVERY time you change a diaper. As the baby gets older, their skin will get stronger, and you will be able to switch back to wipes. I bought 20 packs of wash cloths, and a huge container of soap. Also, make sure you rinse the cloth immeadiatly after use, and put in the washer with a hot setting for the wash. Best part is....you dont have to buy wipes every week, and your baby will enjoy the warm water, its very soothing on a sore butt.
let the baby go naked whenever possible. Light, air %26amp; sunshine will work wonders on the poor sore hiney!!
Ok here's the recipie, but you need a doctor prescription for Nyastatin.


30 ml of nyastatin (one tube)


30 ml of mylanta mint (yes antacid)


30 ml of desitin or zinc oxide (this adds thickness to the mixture)





Put all ingredients into a small rubbermaid container close tight and shake until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Use on soap and water cleaned baby bum that has been air dried.





This is my doctor's 'magic butt creme' for diaper rash. The nyastatin (I still don't know if I am spelling that right) is a perscribed antibiotic and it is very acidic, the mylanta will cool that hot rash and lower the ph level of the acid in the medicine and will not hurt the properties used to heal the rash. The rash will be gone in under 2 days....promise....test and then choose best answer cause this works!
We mixed the creams with medicated powder according to the instructions our pediatrician gave. (It's not easy to mix and once it's in the container, it never leaves, so use something you don't care about.) Apply it liberally several times a day. Baths help because they soak in the water. It usually cleared up in less than a week's time.
Get a presctiption for Dr. Smiths Diaper rash ointment it is the best stuff out there. I used it on my son when he was a baby.
The only thing that worked for my son (when he was a baby) was something different that his pediatrician recommended:





Get two wide dishes of some sort and in one put vinegar (maybe like 1/2 cup) and in the other put some baking soda (about 1/4 cup). Then add warm water to both. Dip your baby's bottom into the vinegar one and then into the baking soda one (just about 10 seconds in each one), then dry it off completely. This neutralizes the acid somehow, because if you're just putting ointment on there before getting rid of the acid and bacteria from the poop, then it's just sealing all of that in. After your baby's bottom is dry (I tried to leave my son's diaper off as long as possible, because air also helps diaper rash a great deal), coat it really well with Vaseline before putting a diaper back on. This works better than anything, because it has no fragrance and it creates a good seal so that it won't get irritated by the next bowel movement or urine. Good luck!





Oh, and by the way, when you go to wipe your baby, just use paper towels soaked with water...no diaper wipes! And after the diaper rash is gone, always use unscented wipes.
if there has been no improvement...take the baby to his/her pediatrician..and like someone said before...let the baby go without a diaper whenever possible.
Take the baby to the pediatrician,it may be fungal or bacterial or an indication of something else.
Any moisture barrier ointment should work. Try Desitin ointment or a light coat of vasaline or zinc oxide. All of these are over-the-counter.





Oh, and change the diapers more frequently helps, too.

Have you ever tried using corn starch? Try using corn starch like you would use a powder in your little ones diaper. My son is 5yrs.old and sometimes has problems with wiping...when his bum is sore I just put some cornstarch on there and he says it feels better right away. Also...this is a no brainer...make sure that you are changing the diaper VERY regularly. I'm sure that you do that anyway. It may cost more money for diapers but it is worth it for a happy baby!
