Article: What to do if nappy rash persists

If you are already following the steps above and nappy rash is still a problem, it could be triggered by other causes. Keep an eye on your baby’s general health as nappy rash can mean there is an underlying problem.

1. Look for patterns; it could be triggered by certain detergents, foods that you have eaten if you are breast feeding or foods that your baby has eaten or even the hot weather.

2. Other causes can include teething, stomach virus, tension or food allergy.

3. To determine if it is a food allergy, only introduce one new food item at a time and wait several days until you introduce the next food type.

4. At home let your baby run free as much as possible and change your baby’s nappy as soon as it is wet. Urine stings a sore bottom! If at home, use warm water and not wipes as this could cause a reaction and also sting your child.

5. Use plenty of Zinc Oxide cream in all the creases. Green People recommend Soothe and Calm Baby Balm which not only contains the natural earth mineral ’Zinc Oxide’, but also Organic Omega-6 from Hemp, Organic Chamomile and Organic Calendula which are known plants to soothe, calm and restore sore skin.

If the symptoms persist, consult your health visitor, nurse or doctor. You may need other treatments which specifically deal with an infection.

"The Soothe & Calm Baby Balm was brilliant! My baby always suffers from a sensitive bottom. It is awful to always have to treat the area with steroid creams that make his clothes white and sticky! The balm is just as effective, but organic and safe and leaves no white mess! You also only need a tiny amount so a pot lasts ages! Again his skin cleared up nice and quick!" T. H. by Email
