- Keep it clean - Cleanse your baby’s bottom thoroughly every time you change the nappy. If the area’s really soiled, try dipping your baby’s bottom in a bowl full of warm water with an emollient bath treatment.
- Treat the skin - Bepanthen® is formulated to help the natural recovery of irritated skin and forms a long lasting, protective waterproof barrier over the skin, while still providing the moisture needed to promote gentle recovery. You can apply it after each nappy change.
- Be gentle - Baby-wipes are sometimes too harsh for babies with sore and sensitive skin, so try using cotton wool and warm water instead.
- When should I see the doctor? - Most nappy rash will clear up quickly with your care… and a little help from Bepanthen® . If the skin is still sore, there may be an infection, which needs treatment from your doctor, so make an appointment if:
- The rash is spreading outside the nappy area or the skin is broken and weeping
- Your baby is feverish and unwell
- The nappy rash hasn’t responded to your treatment within a few days
