Nappy rash is very common and is not a sign of poor care. Through the Wales Common Ailments Service, our pharmacists can provide treatment and practical advice free of charge.
Symptoms:
- Red, sore or puffy skin in the nappy area
- Baby seeming uncomfortable or distressed during nappy changes
- In more severe cases, broken or weeping skin
- Bright red rash with small satellite spots may suggest a fungal infection
Treatment at Knights Pharmacy:
We can supply zinc oxide or petroleum jelly-based barrier cream to protect the skin, antifungal cream (clotrimazole) if a Candida infection is suspected, and mild hydrocortisone for significant inflammation. Nappy-free time is one of the most effective remedies.
When to see your GP:
If the rash is very severe, spreading beyond the nappy area, or your baby has a fever or seems unwell in other ways.
Walk in to any Knights Pharmacy branch in Wales — no appointment or GP referral needed. Free for patients registered with a Welsh GP practice.
