And use wet wipes on your bum. Make sure you clean the area thoroughly (ya, I know it hurts like hell, but if you don't it'll only get worse ) and dry it gently. If all that doesn't work, get to your doc for a check-up, but it sure sounds like nappy-rash. Ah, the many joys of IBS.

INSTANT relief. Zincofax. See if you can get some. IT helps immensely. If you can't get it, look for something with Zinc Oxide of at least 40%. -------------------- Formerly HanSolo.

Any kind of diaper rash ointment with lots of Zinc Oxide in it. -------------------- Dana Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Tucks with witch hazel...I keep a jar of them at home at all times! ~nt~       #210402 - 09/01/05 10:32 AM Edit Reply Quote poochibelly Reged: 04/27/05 Posts: 1614 -------------------- Have a blessed day!...Rachel stable and sooooooo thankful!
