Rashes in skin creases
My baby is 10 week old and has rashes in creases of arms, legs, neck and armpits. I used candid cream twice a day but it wouldn't go away even after 4 weeks. Rash is reddish initially, skin becomes wrinkly and dry and then it peels off. Rashes I'll again return in the same place. I have been using cotton clothes and keeping baby cool so he wouldn't sweat much.
Please advice.
