See pediatrician: I would recommend seeing your pediatrician to determine if the rash may be due to a yeast infection. If so, he/she may recommend an antifungal cream instead of the above.

Agee with Dr.Nguyen: For diaper rash keep baby's skin clean & dry. Change diaper as soon as it's soiled or wet. For healing allow baby to go without diaper for periods of time so affected area can air out. Avoid tight diapers or airtight covers over diaper. Meds your Dr. might recommend include antifungal cream (for fungus), a steroid cream (for significant inflammation) or an antibiotic (for bacterial infection.)
