3 Year Kid, Reoccurring Redness Outside Vagina, Stings. Using Anti Fungal Cream. Suggestions?
My 3 year old has reoccurring redness outside vagina on labia running back toward anus. It stings badly based on her reaction. I have used mild anti fungal cream to help. Should I clean her labia every day with water? She showers every 2nd day, does not use perfumed products but I do not actively clean her private parts. Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you for your query.
It is advisable to clean the private parts with fresh running water two to three times a day and ensure that they are wiped clean. If the redness persists despite this management and the use of the anti-fungal cream then it will be better to get her examined by a doctor.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Wishing your daughter an early recovery.
