What Causes Diaper Rash Along With Swelling Of Lips?
Diaper rash and mouth pain
My 2 year old has had a couple things going on the last couple days. She has been abnormally fussy. She has had a diaper rash but she is also prone to bladder infections so not sure what is actually hurting. On top of that her mouth has been bothering very badly. She woke up this moring in severe pain and the roof of her mouth and top lip are swollen. I dont have any idea what it could be other than an allergic reaction. Any ideas?

Hi
Welcome to the healthcaremagic
Swelling of lip was definitely due to some food allergy . Give her fexofenadine for longer period (14 days).Try to find out allergen and avoid it.Common allergen are non veg food especially seafood,various tree nuts,dry fruits,food colours,preservatives, cake and biscuit cream.
For diaper rash barrier protective cream will suffice.It is not related to food allergy
Happy to help you
Best regards
