What is Sudocrem Care and Protect?

This ointment contains the ingredients vitamin E and pro-vitamin B5 which help to protect the skin and keep it healthy.
What is the cause of nappy rash?
Nappy rash is said to affect up to a third of babies and toddlers. Nappy rash can be caused by:
- The skin is in contact with urine or faeces for a long period of time
- The nappy rubbing against the skin
- Not cleaning the nappy area or changing the nappy enough
- Soaps, detergents, or bubble bath
- Alcohol-based baby wipes
- Antibiotics
The mild nappy rash will not be sore, but more severe forms will cause discomfort.
