Hello,
Since she is still having these rashes even after applying the topical antifungals, I suggest you to get it examined from a dermatologist as it makes sense to confirm the diagnosis first rather than try new medicines. We can do a KOH examination of the skin scrapings to confirm whether it is a fungal infection. A biopsy skin can also be done.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Thank you for you answer, she has been in NYSTATIN for over 2 weeks now. While the old rashes almost gone, new same rashes formed again and spread very quick.
Every diaper changes I always apply Nystatin and DESITIN, but I will not put Desitin no more and will do what you suggested.
Do you think I need to take her to the Dermatologist?, seems to me the infection is keeps coming back.
Hello,
From the symptoms intertrigo is an important possibility. It most commonly occurs due to bacterial,viral or fungal infection. An intertrigo usually appears red and raw-looking, and may also itch, ooze, and be sore.
Please keep the area clean and apply some topical antiseptics. Also make her wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove. Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Application of mild steroid cream cort also helps.For the itching please give some over the counter antihistaminic like benadryl or Claritin. In case the symptoms persist then antifungals may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
