We slather with aquaphor or Vaseline and it's usually gone in a day or two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-remedy-for-your-dss-red-penis#post-1434991 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 20:32:18 +0000 wheres_c 1434991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use prescription cream </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-remedy-for-your-dss-red-penis#post-1433862 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 13:58:50 +0000 Sparkler 1433862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son occasionally had this and I just slathered it with desitin and it was always gone by morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-remedy-for-your-dss-red-penis#post-1433855 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 13:55:46 +0000 cranberryapple 1433855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS (18 months) has occasions where his penis tends to get a little red. Usually, we just bathe him more frequently and try to change his diaper more. We cloth diaper as well, so sometimes I wonder whether it is the diapers, but this redness comes and goes. </p> <p>It makes me sad when this happens, because I wonder what we could've done to prevent this. He actually says it "hurts" and points to it! Heartbreaking! :sad: </p> <p>Anyway, just wondering what you use for when this happens. So far, I've been applying some coconut oil, but I can tell it makes him uncomfortable. How long does the redness usually last for, and did it get worse for you guys? </p>
