Rash in Anus area
Our baby is 13 days old. We are noticing rashes near his anus area. We were using baby wipes to clean the area after he poops. Although he does not cry because of this rash but we are concerned and seeking advice. Can applying coconut oil or ghee give some relief to the baby? Kindly advice.
