2 month old has diarreah frequent wiping caused redness and some bleeding on skin. can i use neosporin and desitin (zinc oxide diaper cream)?

Desitin (zinc oxide diaper cream): Throw away the neosporin: it often causes allergic reactions. No antibiotic should be used. Be very gentle.

Desitin (zinc oxide diaper cream): This is usually due to local irritation not infection, thus neosporin has no benefit can only act as a further irritant.

Do not need : Antibiotics. Diarrhea cause the skin to be sensitive and irritated from the acid . Neutralize it with maalox suspension( this is an antacid taken orally) but in this case, i want you to apply it on the diaper areas where it is irritated. It will soothe the area and heals irritation in no time . Continue using your diaper rash cream/ ointment as usual. See md if with yeast infection. Need rx.
