Fungus like infection around the groin
My boy is 3.5 months old. Since past 3 days we could see a fungus like infection red in color (with raised dots) around the groin and genitals. We have applied Calapure-A lotion but no success. We also use Pseudo Diaper Rash cream regularly. I can even share a pic of the affected area. Please help.
