Boils at scrotum and nearby area
Dear Dr.
My 11 month baby boy got red boils and skin became reddish at scrotum and nearby area since a week. It used to get heal if I applied baby rash cream and dusting powder if causes due to diaper but this time it's bit long lasting. Recently I changed size and brand of the diaper does it not suit him? How to find out the reason. Please find attached photo to examine. Kindly suggest what to apply heal faster and shall I go for diaper change?
Thanks!
