Irritant dermatitis, better known as pruritus, is common in babies who are between the ages of 6 months and 2 years. It is usually seen in the area around the diaper, but it is possible to appear in other skin folds, such as those on the arms and legs.

Undercutting is characterized by small rash and reddened skin. And since the skin is inflamed and painful, it also affects the emotional state of the baby, as in most cases it is irritated and crying. This, in turn, due to pain and itching, which he may experience.
There can be several reasons for undercutting. As we know, baby skin is extremely delicate and tender. She can easily be irritated by inappropriate materials. In addition, a wet diaper also has an adverse effect, so it is important to change it regularly.

Other reasons can be the change of food, frequent use or use of inappropriate wet wipes, incorrectly selected cosmetics, as well as not properly drying the skin after bathing, are also the cause of the appearance of irritant dermatitis.
In case undercutting is observed, it is treatment should be undertaken, in order to soothe the irritated skin as quickly as possible and to prevent the appearance of a bacterial or fungal infection.
One of the main ways to deal with undercutting are specially designed creams for the purpose. These products contain zinc oxide and vitamins whose job it is to soothe irritated skin and deal with inflammation.

After the cut has passed, you can apply the cream to the area preventively for a certain period of time. And if there is established bacterial or fungal infection, it is extremely important to see a doctor and follow the prescribed treatment, which most often includes a topical antibiotic.

When and how to use anti-itch creams?

Кремовете против подсичане са създадени специално, за да успокоят раздразнената кожа на бебето. В случай, че е необходимо използването на такъв тип продукти, то ви съветваме да обърнете специално внимание на техния състав. Избирайте кремове, които имат натурални съставки и нямат вредни химикали като парабени, оцветители, парфюми и други подобни, тъй като they can only complicate the condition. 

Cut creams are sometimes used as a preventative measure, but we still advise you to be careful and not overuse them. Too frequent use of the cream it can lead to the skin getting used to the product and losing its natural protective properties.

We recommend that you to choose products that are intended for daily use, as their composition is lighter. The cutting cream is usually used after a bath, applying a thin layer to the problem areas.

Main benefits

Rightly chosen, the anti-bite cream aims to protect your baby's delicate skin. It protects it from adverse external influences and provides the necessary hydration. Thanks to zinc oxide, the cream quickly soothes irritated skin and protects it from the more aggressive environment in the diaper.

Something more, the anti-itch creams, which are completely natural, contain herbs and plants such as sumac, calendula and chamomile. As we know, sumac has antibacterial and antifungal effects.
In this way, it prevents both undercutting and the occurrence of bacterial and fungal infection. And even if there is some kind of infection and irritation, sumac will quickly deal with them.

On the other hand, chamomile is known for its soothing properties and calendula helps the skin to heal faster. Products that contain natural ingredients are much more delicate for sensitive skin and are suitable for use every day.

Is there an age at which we should stop?

As we shared at the beginning of the article, undercutting occurs most often in the period between the sixth month and the second year. This is also the time when it may be necessary to use this type of product.

Like any other type of baby cosmetics, it you shouldn't overdo it with anti-itch creams either. It is not necessary to constantly use the product in order to protect the baby from irritant dermatitis.

Usually, after removing the diaper completely, the probability of chafing is minimal, so in the period after the second year it is not necessary to use anti-chafing creams.

As for whether there is a specific age at which you should stop using anti-shrink products, well there are no definite medical prescriptions. For each baby, the need for their use is individual.

Of course, if you have any concerns or doubts about the condition of your child's skin, you we advise you to consult a specialist, who will carry out the necessary examinations and tests and prescribe appropriate treatment.
