Suggest Remedies For A Diaper Rash In A Toddler

My toddler had a rash in his diaper area that spread up his abdomen and back, it appeared to look like hives. Went away with hydrocortisone 1% and A&D ointment. I fed him strawberrys at luch and at bathtime I noticed it coming back. Is this a norman reaction to a food allergy (to start in the diaper area)

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your baby, it may not be the food allergy because it is not the general appearance, it is the nappy rash only, and it can be well managed with 'Calamine lotion" with oral Levocetirizine (Dose need to adjusted according to age and weight) hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
