What is it?

Diaper rash is a common skin condition in infants and young children caused by prolonged contact with moisture, urine, stool, or friction from diapers. It appears as red, irritated, and sore skin in the diaper area and may sometimes be associated with yeast or bacterial infection. The rash can cause discomfort and fussiness if not managed early.
