Sometimes a diaper rash needs medical attention. Talk with your baby’s doctor if:
- The rash does not look like it's going away or gets worse two to three days after starting treatment
- The rash includes blisters or pus-filled sores
- Your baby is taking an antibiotic and has a bright red rash with red spots at its edges
- Your baby has a fever along with a rash
- The rash is very painful
- You suspect a yeast infection
