My son didn't even notice it. Just keep the front of his diaper rubbed down with a lot of Vaseline. Him being that young I would ask your pediatrition instead of us. We wouldn't be able to tell you the dosage and what not. I don't believe babies that young are suppose to take anything though. I know it's hard looking at their little weenis like that though.

Babies are absolutely not supposed to take drugs like that so young. No Tylenol/Advil/etc at all before six months at the earliest. Breastfeed for comfort and use petroleum jelly (or even better coconut oil) to soothe cool and protect the area and it will heal in just a couple of days.
