However, if you notice that the rashes have become very red, raw or sore looking or if you notice blisters, pus or crusty patches, it is best to have your baby examined by your pediatrician.

Preventing Diaper Rash
Air it out. When you change your baby's diapers, make sure that you dry out his (or her) bottom completely with a clean towel. It will also be a great help if you leave the skin exposed to air for a few minutes before putting on a new diaper.
Dusting the baby's bottom with powder also helps a lot in protecting your baby's skin from irritants. Just be careful when you apply powder since it can be a possible health hazard, especially if the baby accidentally inhales it. As a safety precaution, sprinkle a small amount of powder on your hand first before you apply it on your baby's skin. Go for cornstarch-based powders.
