Took my 3 month old to the dr they said he had fire butt...what exactly is this? and what causes it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
?fire butt: This certainly is not a medical term, but I believe it refers to a diaper dermatitis. The wet, moist environment, as well as when stool or diarrhea is on the skin in a "closed" diaper, the skin can get inflamed, red, and raw.
