Can I Use Monistat Cream For Yeast Diaper Infection?
My son has had a bad diaper rash for about 4 days. We took him to an urgent care place in our area and the doctor that saw him told him he had a yeast diaper infection and prescribed magic butt cream. We have used it for 4 days and it s getting worse. I think it s getting worse because he needs an anti fungal cream to kill the yeast. I have spare monistat vulvar cream at the house can I use that to kill the yeast?

Hi,
You can apply anti-fungal cream locally.
Some times there might be having super added bacterial infection then he might require antibiotic medicine course to control infection.
Keep local part clean, dry and airy.
Ok and take care.
