Brief Answer:
Diaper rash

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
The baby might have developed diaper rash.
It is quiet common in infants.
I treat such cases with topical antifungal powders like clotrimazole.
It gives good results within a week.
Can you please upload a photograph of the involved area.
This will help me in giving a closer diagnosis.
Waiting for your response.
Thank you
