Cluster of pimples on 4mo baby’s nappy area (pic)

[Thompsc]

Hi all

does anybody know what this looks like, it’s on the skin just around but not actually touching any genitals it’s to the right hand side of them. I don’t think it hurts her as when I rub them with a wipe she doesn’t react but I can’t see any pics of what it could be online it looks like nothing I’ve googled! Any ideas?

We had something like this, never found out what it was, they grew larger, looked more sore and eventually burst. They recurred many times over the first few years.

@HairyKitty thanks for your response! I’m guessing they haven’t reoccurred since? What happened when they burst, were they full of anything? They look quite big on the pic but they’re tiny little pimples. I’m taking the fact that they don’t bother her as a good sign. I’ve kind of gently scratched them almost to see if it’s evoked any reaction but it doesn’t.

My DD suffered from thrush as a baby.
This looks similar to the very early stages of her outbreaks.

However my DD was bothered by it. So maybe not.

@Thompsc they got larger and appeared as if they were hard fluid fill vesicles. When they “burst” there was no pus or anything just a raw open top. Tea tree products seemed to improve them. They recurred for about 4 years I think and once on the face.

If yours are smaller than they look maybe it’s not the same thing?
