Hi Mums,
I changed my little boy (8 weeks) yesterday to find a really angry looking lump in the crack of his bum. I got really distressed because it was shocking to see on such a tiny baby.
I took him straight to the health visitor this morning who said it looked like a boil. She gently squeezed it and alot of pus came out. He really cried. I took him to the doctor, as advised, who confirmed it is a boil and he is now on antibiotics. I am gutted that he has had to have antibiotics at such a young age. He also keeps vomitting the medicine back up about 5 minutes after having it...
Anyone else experience the above with their little one?
