>What's your favorite diaper rash ointment? Not just the pink, mild contact >dermatitis but the angry red, non monilial, bleeding, oozing, poor baby >that must really burn, rash? Kim Burlingham, MD > > > Aquaphor Ointment, the "old" kind in the one pound jar (not the "healing ointment" in the 1.75 ounce tube). It's expensive (close to $20.00 for a one pound jar), but it lasts practically forever and once they've tried it parents swear by it. I tried all the zinc oxide based ointments after our first daughter was born and hated the smell and texture plus the fact that the stuff stays on your fingers for hours afterwards!
