Identifying diaper rash

Diaper rash is one of the most common dermatologic conditions in the United States and the most common skin disorder of early childhood. It is most commonly seen in babies at 6-8 months of age.

Diaper rash usually comes on quickly, and affects the areas that are in closest contact with the diaper.

The primary cause of diaper rash is prolonged and increased exposure to wetness/moisture.
