## Contribution

The novelty lies in presenting a rare, prolonged case of diaper dermatitis with a widespread rash unresponsive to typical therapies.

## Key findings

- Initial treatments with steroids, antibiotics, and antifungals were ineffective.
- The case highlights the need for alternative approaches in resistant dermatitis.

## Abstract

Diaper dermatitis is a rash typically localized to the genital area and may have various etiologies, including irritant and allergic contact dermatitis. In most cases, it resolves on its own with minimal to no medical intervention, and when treatment is necessary, it usually responds promptly. Here, we present a prolonged case of diaper dermatitis accompanied by a nearly full-body rash that was resistant to initial treatment with steroids, antibiotics, and antifungals.
