My 23 month old son has tiny red bumps that look a little like pimples on his butt and a little on the back of his left thigh. Theyre not getting better or worse. They started about 3 days ago and havent gone away. We thought the cause was that we changed the brand of diaper he was wearing, so we switched it back. I havent been using baby wipes when he needs to be changed. Instead I have been using water and a cloth, and soapy water when he poops. I cant seem to find anything anywhere online that can tell me what these little red bumps are.
H Dear, Understanding your concern. Condition seems to be mainly infection of follicles leading to folliculitis, and it could be due to wetness in that area. I would suggest you to keep area clean and apply antibacterial powder to avoid red bumps. Apply mupirocin ointment topically twice a day. If symptoms still persist, visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment accordingly. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
