DD has had what I thought was nappy rash on her outer labia until this morning when I got her up and changed her and noticed a hard lump with a head that was oozing puss, I realized straight away what it was and took a closer look I gave it a gentle squeeze and the puss, liquid and blood oozed out sorry tmi. I have an apt at the g.p. this afternoon but just wondering what I can do in the meantime to alleviate the symptoms for her?

had to try to answer as horrid to wait when you are worried. could gently bathe in salt water but I would try to leave well alone and change her regularly. try replacing wipes with salt water and cotton wool to cleanse at each change. sounds horrid, hope she gets better soon. x
