Dermatology

Diaper rash is a common skin problem in babies and toddlers up to two years old. It makes the skin red and irritated because of too much moisture, rubbing, or harsh substances. About 35% of babies get diaper rash, especially between 9 and 12 months old. It is not dangerous but can make babies uncomfortable. Luckily, 90% of cases get better with regular diaper changes, protective creams, and good care. If a serious infection is not treated, it may lead to problems that need a doctor’s help.

Warts are benign or noncancerous skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They’re most common on hands, feet, and even the face, but they can show up anywhere on the body. They affect people of all ages but are more common in children and young adults. Though they may be bothersome or persistent, they are generally harmless and often resolve on their own.
