What Could The Buttock Lumps Be?
Hi, my two year old keeps getting these tiny pimple like red bumps on her buttocks. I thought it was some type of a diaper rash and well I put some tripple paste-diaper rash cream...she still has the bumps. They don t itch, since I don t see her reaching to scratch her bottom and when I change her diaper she doesn t complain of pain. What could this be?

dear parent, this is most probably a staph aureus infection. you need to keep this area as clean and dry as possible and apply an antibiotic ointment 3 times daily until the pimples disappear
