Good morning, ma'am,

How long have you noticed this?

Has your child been complaining of pain, itching or irritation?

Is he still wearing diapers?

Hello, it's been a little more than a week, he doesn't wear a diaper, he complains of itching so he scratches and it becomes very irritated so afterwards it hurts a lot. I don't know where this can come from and I would like to help him in this situation.

Thank you for the information! However, considering her age and the sensitive area, a doctor should be consulted in order to allow a proper evaluation of the situation and its rapid management.

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
