What Causes Reddish Bumps On Diaper Area?
Hi, we have had bed bugs in our home recently and was grated by an exterminator for them. My son has had bites on him and today he woke up from a nap and had pooped. He had these red bumps in his diaper area. I didn t know if these were more bites, from the poop, or heat?

Good day and thank you for your question. Your son had a diaper rash and not bites from bed bugs. What you should do is change his diaper as often as possible after you noticed he has pooped or urinated. You can use creams that contains Zinc oxide.
Hope it helps. Thank you.
