What are the symptoms of diaper rash?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Redness, peeling..: Moisture, heat and lack of air circulation may cause skin irritation which may get over infected with bacteria or fungus. Redness and peeling may indicate exposure to moisture, blisters may indicate a bacterial infection and if associated with satellite lesions, a fungal infection. It's better to see a doctor for a definitive diagnosis.
