How does a person get diaper rash? How do you treat it?

Public Comments

1. An adult gets diaper rash the same way a baby gets it, from sitting in their own urine or feces. The treatment would be the same as well- better hygeine practice, changing wet or dirty underclothing frequently, air, sunlight, and any of the diaper rash remedies sold in the baby care section.

2. diaper rash creme (real name) no sarcasam here

3. Keep they area protected from futher damage and the diaper rash cream.
