Diaper Cream

My two sons have inherited terrible skin, which brings about many unfortunate bouts of ezcema....and AWFUL diaper rashes. My older son has (and continues to have) very frequent diaper rashes, but unfortunately, we have tried about every cream out there and they all give him Yeast Infections. Ugh! Diaper rashes are awful, but add horrible bleeding "satellite pimples," and every diaper change turns into a screaming, crying, fighting mess.

Each time we finally got rid of a yeast infection, a new one would creep up. We would try various diaper rash creams, and he will end up with yet another yeast infection. The poor kid's bum could have been used for a textbook picture on terrible diaper rash/yeast infections!

We were feeling quite frustrated, and presented our concerns to our doctor. In order to treat the poor bleeding pimples, our family doctor recommended that we quit using diaper cream until the sores were gone...he also recommened that we try using Neosporin + Pain Relief instead.

I LOVE this stuff! It not only helps with the sores, but it hels with the diaper rash....and the pain. Neosporin with pain relief also includes a topical pain-reliever. It works quickly and very well. You can find the neosporin with pain relief in both a cream and an ointment form. Many stores also carry "off-brand" versions, which contain the same ingredients and work just as well. We haven't used diaper rash cream in over a year now, and have not had a single yeast infection! Hooray for that! If you're struggling with diaper rashes with your kids, give Neosporin + Pain Relief a try! How easy is that?
