How To Treat A Baby For Diaper Rash: 8 Easy Steps

1. Monitor The Rash

If keeping the infected area dry, medicated, and exposed to air does not start to reduce the rash, take the baby in to see a pediatrician. Seek immediate treatment if the child develops other symptoms such as fever in addition to the diaper rash as this could be a symptom of a more serious problem. While diaper rashes usually go away soon enough with treatment, they are painful for the baby and may cause extra tears and sleepless nights.
