There is a white spot on the buttocks of the newborn

When white spots appear on the buttock groove of a newborn, as a new mother, don't be too anxious. There are many reasons for this situation. The main reason is that the baby's skin is particularly delicate. If you don't pay attention to timely care, it is easy for urine to irritate the skin and cause such a phenomenon. Therefore, you should change diapers in time and clean the baby's buttocks in time. Let us learn about this aspect.

This may be caused by not keeping the skin on the buttocks clean and dry. Since the buttocks are in contact with wet diapers for a long time, feces and urine have strong irritation to the skin. In addition, the skin of newborns is delicate, so buttocks are prone to redness and small white spots may appear on the local skin. In severe cases, the skin will erode and break, and peel and ooze.

When a red buttocks appears, be sure to keep the buttocks dry and change the diaper promptly if it is found to be wet.

It may also be that the baby's butt is often irritated by urine, and the hygiene conditions of wearing open-crotch pants are not good, and long-term irritation causes inflammation or diaper rash. This situation is very common. Pay attention to let the baby drink more water, be careful not to let the baby lie on the ground or in unsanitary places, wash the baby's butt more often, and keep the buttocks dry. If the redness and swelling are severe, you can apply some topical medication to the baby.

1. Take off the diaper when the baby has urinated, wash the baby thoroughly, then dry it with a dry bath towel and don't put it on again. Use diapers when you go out and when you sleep. At other times, if you can help your baby pee, just use diapers. Try to keep your butt dry and avoid contact with moisture and plastic products.

2. If the anus is red, do not use toilet paper. Use soft paper towels or wet wipes to gently wipe it. It is best to use paper towels and then wet wipes to clean it thoroughly. Then wash the baby's butt. You can put on small pants that are exposed at the back. For small babies, just leave them hanging. Be careful not to let the baby get too cold. Let the baby lie on his stomach to air his butt, or you can apply some talcum powder.

It is normal for small white spots to appear on the baby's buttocks. They are usually caused by diapers or diapers, or they may be caused by irritation from urine and feces. Mothers can observe first. If there is no improvement after taking improvement measures, they should consider going to the hospital to consult a doctor and actively cooperate with the treatment under the doctor's guidance.
