I know that kids can get it from wet diapers, but is it from moisture or is it something in urine and stuff that irritates skin. I don't have kids so, I'm a bit clueless.

Diaper rash is caused from wet diapers since bacteria form very quickly on the skin that is already irritates by urine.

Urine contains ammonia-which if it sits on the skin long enough will cause a chemical burn. Changing a childs diaper frequently will prevent a diaper rash. I always used A and D ointment on my kids bottoms with every change to protect their skin from damage.

Depends on what your kids are eating, drinking,teething, brand of diapers can be a cause to.pay attention to what they are eating and drinking at the onset of it, you might be able to eliminate it that way.

they get rashes by their skin rubbing together causing heat therefore causing a rash. keep baby powder in your baby's diaper so that rashes cannot occur.

it is caused by the ammonia in the urine being next to the skin for too long.
