Skin infection
My son 4 month 23 days old. He has been facing some infection in private area. Earlier it was on right side only now it also seen on left side also. I have used candid lotion but doesn't show any result. So i have used candid powder so its dried for a while then as soon as it get wet it shows redness. Earlier i thought it may be due to mosquito bite. Please help in this regard?
