Talcum powder is used to absorb unwanted wetness in babies. The use of talcum powder is no longer recommended. Because the powder used undoubtedly poses a danger to the baby's lungs when inhaled. Talcum powders, especially those containing small, easily inhaled particles, are of greatest concern. It is unnecessary and dangerous to expose children to this carcinogen. There is no evidence that baby powder prevents or cures diaper rash. The best method to prevent diaper rash is to clean your baby's bottom every time you change the diaper, dry it gently and apply a thin layer of protective ointment or cream. In addition, since the absorbency of the diapers used today is very good, there is no need to use baby powder on a daily basis as long as the baby's diaper is changed frequently, that is, as long as the baby's diaper remains dry and clean. If your baby has a diaper rash, using diaper rash ointment or cream is a better option. . By the way, if your baby has signs of skin infection in the rash areas (excessive redness of the rash areas, fever and discharge, etc.), what you need to do is to consult your baby's doctor. In this case, do not use powder and consult your baby's doctor.
