My new born girl is having very bad nappy rash on her bum and private area. I have tried applying Johnson baby lotion and dapolene cream but nothing seems two work. Can anyone please recommend something which will cure it faster.

If really bad, go polyclinic, they will give you cream to use to cure it 1st. My son have really bad nappy rash, so we need the cream to help. Can try tapioca powder. Work like wonder too.

Desitin blue or purple (even stronger) or earth mama bottom balm! In the meantime avoid using baby wipes to clean, instead use water and cotton balls. Also air bum after every cleaning.

Try desitin. It works for my baby. She had a terrible nappy rash. But during the day i don't put on diapers for her until she got better. If we go out, she'll be on cloth diapers.

Must be completely dry before u apply anything. Airing it is the best way....since nb, she wont move much. use some nappy or unwanted cloth and place below to catch pee/poo

Biolane Dermo-Paediatrics Diaper Rash Cream is good. It can heal and prevent. My lo has bad nappy rash when discharge from hospital. We use this and it works.

my LO uses MooGoo nappy rash cream... made from edible ingredients.... so its safer for the LO

Oot but may I know what diaper your LO is using that may have caused this diaper rash? Thanks

Try desitin (blue). Recommended by the hospital nurses. And it helps! Also try to keep clean and dry.
