What is it?
Chronic diaper area irritation refers to persistent redness, soreness, or skin breakdown in the diaper region that does not improve with routine care. In infants and young children, this may be caused by prolonged moisture exposure, frequent stools, friction, repeated infections, sensitivity to wipes or diapers, or underlying skin conditions. The skin may appear red, raw, thickened, or repeatedly inflamed.
How it works
At Claire Derma, management focuses on identifying the underlying cause of ongoing irritation and restoring the skin barrier. The dermatologist examines the diaper area, reviews diapering habits, products used, and any previous treatments. Care includes targeted topical treatment, barrier repair, treatment of infection if present, and detailed guidance on diaper hygiene and skin protection to prevent recurrence.
