Hi. The reason why there is a rash is that the moisture gets trapped inside the diaper cream. This is what you do.
1: clean with a wet wipe
2: dab with a good quality dry tissue
3: Air the area nicely
4: Once you are sure that the area is dry, apply diaper cream or even Vaseline.
The last step ensures that the area is protected from external moisture. If you apply the cream earlier, the moisture gets trapped and it irritates the skin.
Lastly, use good disposable diapers at least till the rash disappears. Hope this helps
