Parents need to routinely consult with doctors regarding child development. The consultation in question is a form of implementing the highest professional standards consisting of a series of history taking, physical examination to supporting examinations to make a diagnosis. Therefore, as an effort to support children's health in Indonesia, MAKUKU together with St. Carolus Hospital Jakarta held a free consultation on diaper rash problems which accompanied directly by a pediatrician and skin specialist. This program was carried out on December 17, 2022.
As many as 50 mothers have consulted directly with dr. Ratno Sidauruk, SpA (K), dr. Maria Martina Siboe, SpA and dr. Jeanne Laurensie S, SpA at St. Carolus Hospital, Jakarta.
Pediatrician, dr. Jeanne Laurensie S, SpA said, "In addition to maintaining cleanliness and changing baby's diapers regularly, mothers need to make sure the size of the diaper is suitable for the baby. Diapers should not be too tight or too loose. If it's too tight, it means that the skin will rub against the diaper and leave stretch marks on the skin. Meanwhile, if it is too loose, it can cause the diaper to leak and irritate the baby's skin. In addition, it is necessary to choose diapers that are easy to absorb with a smooth surface to avoid irritating the baby's skin.
A mother who attended the consultation, Lala revealed, “I was confused because my child had diaper rash for two weeks. During that time, my child's skin was more prone to abrasions and cuts, making him fussy and uncomfortable. With this consultation, I get information from the doctor directly and can be applied if my child has diaper rash. According to the information I received, diaper cream can treat diaper rash. As it turns out, there are many other factors to consider. One of them is the selection of diapers with high absorption. MAKUKU diapers with high absorption are able to solve the problem of diaper rash and are soft so they don't trigger diaper rash.”
