Regularly allow your baby to move around without a nappy on for as long as possible.
Your baby might be suffering from fungal nappy rash if you notice:
See your doctor if:
Fungal nappy rash is an infection that can be treated with an anti-fungal product, such as an anti-fungal nappy rash cream.
If your baby has inflamed candidal nappy rash, your doctor may advise you to use a combined anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal nappy rash cream, with a follow-on anti-fungal treatment.
Once the infection has cleared, barrier ointments such as Bepanthen can protect from the causes of nappy rash.
Bepanthen seals in the natural moisture on your baby’s skin by forming a transparent layer, which protects even the most delicate skin from irritants. It also contains pro-vitamin B5 to gently aid natural skin recovery.

Canesten® cream has been used to treat fungal nappy rash for 25 years. The active ingredient clotrimazole treats the fungal infection directly and helps relieve fungal nappy rash symptoms.
Once the infection has cleared, barrier ointments such as Bepanthen can protect from the causes of nappy rash and help to prevent a recurrence.
