sore bums

Re: Yeast Infection..?
Asked by allyp

Question:
 

I know babies can get yeast infections and I think my daughter may have it.
It's really sore on her bum area (because it had spread) and it's spotted red dots and sometimes bleeds..

Am I able to use a yeast infection cream on her? Like Canesten? Or just keep using Penaten cream for diaper rash (even though i'm pretty sure it's not a diaper rash no more)

My Advice:

hi there
 

i def would recomend canesten as i have used it on the last 3 of my 7 babies. I would also recommend u try egg white i used this with all 7. my children were and are all prone 2 very sore bums when they are teething the blood can be running from their bottoms and they b in such pain. Having tried numerous creams from doc's i deceided 2 give my granny's remendy a go which is the egg white.

put in a container and keep in fridge as well as having healing properties the coolness sooths their bum. Just rub on and let it dry b4 putting the nappy back on. 4 me it worked after 2-3 apps.

hope this is of some help.Karen x
