Rash advice
Article Abstract:
A reduction in the amount of time a baby's bottom comes in to contact with faeces and urine will help reduce the risk of developing nappy or diaper rash. Severe cases of diaper rash may require investigation from a skin specialist, with the administration of an anticandidal cream or steroids. Parents are adviced to change their baby's nappy at regular intervals and never to let them lie in the nappy's contents for long periods.

Saving face
Article Abstract:
Learning how to look after skin can help reduce premature aging, scarring and prevent cancer. Over exposure to the sun must be avoided as skin can quickly become dehydrated which can cause wrinkles and dryness. Time spent in showers or baths should be restricted to 15 minutes as this will help the skin retain moisture, while avoiding it becoming overly hot and dehydration occurring.
