- Rashes in Babies and Children
Nappy rash is particularly common in babies, caused by prolonged exposure to wet nappies, while heat rash can affect toddlers and preschoolers, especially in hot weather.
Allergic reactions leading to rashes can occur at any age but are most common in young children. Identifying the type of rash helps determine the best treatment, which may include barrier creams, cooling lotions, or antihistamines.
