Nappy Rash Treatment

Get free NHS nappy rash advice at Knights Pharmacy in Wales — no GP appointment needed.

Nappy rash is very common and is not a sign of poor care. Through the Wales Common Ailments Service, our pharmacists can provide treatment and practical advice free of charge.

Symptoms:

Red, sore or puffy skin in the nappy area
Baby seeming uncomfortable or distressed during nappy changes
In more severe cases, broken or weeping skin
Bright red rash with small satellite spots may suggest a fungal infection

Treatment at Knights Pharmacy:

We can supply zinc oxide or petroleum jelly-based barrier cream to protect the skin, antifungal cream (clotrimazole) if a Candida infection is suspected, and mild hydrocortisone for significant inflammation. Nappy-free time is one of the most effective remedies.

When to see your GP:

If the rash is very severe, spreading beyond the nappy area, or your baby has a fever or seems unwell in other ways.

Walk in to any Knights Pharmacy branch in Wales — no appointment or GP referral needed. Free for patients registered with a Welsh GP practice.
