The Dhaka Times Desk We are always aware of child care. But there are some things that we have trouble controlling. One of them is diaper rash. Learn how to address them today.
Usually, baby's skin is very tender. If this sensitive skin is exposed to urine and feces over a period of time or repeatedly, the moisture can break down the skin's natural layer of oil. Due to this, the skin swells like a red wheel or sometimes looks like a rash. This type of problem is what we call a rash.
In an interview, Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr., a pediatrician at Sir Salimullah Medical College, Mitford Hospital, in an interview about why diapers are used in children and how to protect them. Naeema Sultana said in detail.
He said, after changing the diaper, some of the accepted ideals are to always wash the baby's abdomen with mild soapy water. Thus, after each diaper change, the baby's diaper area should be thoroughly washed with water. But many parents use something artificial here (scented tissue paper and special cleaning products), some of which remains on the baby's skin. Such things can also be irritating to the skin, especially if the baby has a rash, causing further damage.
Dr. Naeema Sultana also said that diaper rash can heal faster if the affected area is exposed to open air. For that, it is necessary to keep the baby without diaper for at least 10/15 minutes after cleaning the area after changing the diaper. Even then, if the rash causes discomfort, 'sizbath' should be done. It will also help the skin retain moisture. By doing this, the rash will heal in a faster time. A sitz bath is a large pot or tub that involves sitting hip-deep in a few inches of tolerably warm water. Even if the child is given a toy, the child should be kept in the sea bath. The time of each seabath can be from 5 to 10 minutes. This will certainly be of some benefit.
If the diaper is too tight, you can cut the elastic near the two thighs. This will make the diaper looser. If the diaper is loose, there will be air inside. This will also prevent rashes. While buying diapers, look for absorbency, comfort and leakproofness.
Dr. Naima Sultana also said, especially during travel, while sleeping the baby at night, and some people wear diapers all day. No matter when wearing, one thing to keep in mind is that diapers must be changed within 4/6 hours. If the child urinates, it should be changed as soon as possible. A baby boy should be careful while wearing diapers so that urine can be rolled and absorbed properly. So these things should be fixed.
