Pimples on My 2 Year Old Bottom

One questions....is she still in diapers? This might be a yeast infection. Try using Monostat...I used this faithfully for my kids.

S.

check with your dr. but she may have a milk allergy. mine did.

Powder with cornstarch works great, I recomend Baby Avalon Organics.I will soak up the moisure creating the pimples.Hope this helps.

My son is a bit older, but he has this problem. The name is foccillitus, I may have spelled it wrong. He does have Down Syndome and they say that is one of the by products. But they go away with medication but always return. His ped dr is finkelstein. But it goes away for months and then return, no known cause which is frustrating.

hello,
are the pimples blistery? does she drink lots of juices that may have too much acid in it, Corn starch is good , sounds crazy, but I'm old school a mother and a grandmother , and corn starch is a old rememdy, it works, normally everyone has a box in their kitchen cabinet, apply as if you would baby powder ,,,,,, the pimples will dry up , unless she is allergic to underclothing material ????

My two year old daughter was also getting very painful bumps that would get a head on it like a pimple but would never clear up. I took my daughter to the pediatrician and was told it was a form of staph infection that had to be treated with an oral and topical antibiotic. They warned me it was very hard to get rid of and be careful with my son coming in contact with it. Call your pediatrician.

My first thought would be what are you washing her clothes in and are you using, "Bounce"? There's such a thing as the "Bounce blush" when kids get a reaction to the awful ingredients in it, prob other fabric softeners would be the same...Now might be a good time to switch to what Oprah and Dr Oz etc love, Get Clean non toxic cleaning line from Shaklee which you can see here..NO RISK to anyone's health especially little kids who are having more health problems from all the chemicals in their homes......chek it out here:

It probably isn't pimples but may be a byproduct of dry, sensitive skin. Try a good moisturizer. That always works for me and my daughter. We get them all over. You can also go to dermadoctor.com and look up keratosis pilaris for more info.

Try some beudroux's butt paste. I may be wrong with the spelling but you can find it in any wal-mart and it works wonder's on my 21/2 year old son.

The pimples could be an allergy to something she has eaten or an allergy to soap or diapers. Have you changed anything recently? Test and see. AF

HI there ~ if you haven't done so already you may want to take her to the doctor's as it could be a staph infection. She may need more than just balmex to clear it up.

My 2 year old has the same thing! My pediatrician said to use neosporin and then put a layer of A&D ointment over top for protection. So far so good!

If you're pretty sure that it's just a rash and you've ruled out anything too scary (yeast infection, ect.) I swear by a baking soda bath. I have used this method a hundred times and it works almost instantly. Just add some to warm bath water and let her soak for awhile. I have even mixed a paste and applied it directly to my son's bottom. Good Luck!

It may be a infection. My son had something similar, Dr said neosporin

Hi R.!
Have you switched diapers lately? Sometimes that causes those icky bumps. But a good fix is Desitin, it's thick & just blob (techinal word ha ha) it on, because it doesn't melt off like A&D ointment does. If your can deal with it, a naked butt for a while everyday is good too.

Good Luck.

HI R.,

Have you talked to your pediatrician or his nurse?
