DIAPER RASH BY DR OR GEFEN

It's one of the most common and uncomfortable experiences for babies, and for their worried parents.

But the good news is, there are ways to prevent diaper rash, and even to treat it if it does occur.

Diaper rash is an inflammation of the skin that occurs in the areas that are usually covered by a diaper. It appears as redness, irritation, and sometimes even peeling or cuts.

One of the things that makes diaper rash so difficult is that it can make babies very fussy, especially during diaper changes, cleaning, or touching the affected area.

So what should you do, what should you avoid, and how can you prevent diaper rash from happening in the first place?

It's actually a lot easier than you might think.

Here are a few tips:

1. Change diapers frequently.

Leaving a baby in a wet or dirty diaper for too long can can irritate the skin and lead to diaper rash.

That's why it's important to change diapers as soon as possible after a bowel movement, and to clean the skin with warm water and pat it dry.

If your baby already has diaper rash, you can apply Oeight's Diaper Cream to help soothe the skin. It's made with 100% natural active ingredients that help the skin heal and protect it from further irritation.

2. Avoid tight clothing and friction.

Diapers and clothes that are too tight can rub against the skin and cause friction, which can also lead to diaper rash.

Make sure the diaper is not too tight, and choose clothes that are loose and comfortable. If possible, let your baby go without a diaper for some time each day. This will help to air out the skin and prevent diaper rash.

3. Maintain good hygiene.

Good hygiene is always important, but it's especially important when your baby has diaper rash.

Give your baby a daily bath with warm water and gently clean the affected area. Be careful not to scrub too hard, as this can irritate the skin further.

It's also important to choose the right products. Perfumes,, and other ingredients can make diaper rash worse. That's why it's important to choose products that will protect the skin and help it heal, like Oeight's products. They're made with 100% natural active ingredients that will do just that.

So let’s dive into the ingredients; calendula, Vitamin E, castor oil and more all help treat existing diaper rash. However, our powerhouse ingredient? Zinc oxide. It’s been proven to create a barrier between the diaper and our little one’s skin- allowing to not only treat BUT ALSO prevent future diaper rash.

And one more thing to remember:

Some babies are simply born with more sensitive skin, which makes them more prone to diaper rash. The most important thing is to follow all of the tips we've mentioned here to soothe your baby's delicate skin and to treat diaper rash carefully when it does occur.

Home treatment should help, but if you don't see improvement after a few days, be sure to consult with your pediatrician.
