Default Re: Sudden Super Red Bum HELP

We have had sudden red bum here too twice. It is terrible. DS just started screaming in the backyard one day, we thought he was tired, couldn't smell poo, only had changed him 15 - 20 mins earlier. We had no idea took his temp, offered dummy, somehow thought about taking his nappy off and his bottom was completly red the poor darling. I used zinc and castor oil cream, cornstarch flour,(powder), cool bath. The poor darling cried uncontrollably for about 45 mins.

THe next time a few months later we were on the ball when he started crying out of the blue and took his nappy off and his bott was red but not as bad.

Both times I put it down to teething. It is terrible when it happens and just lucky it has only been really bad twice.
