Egg allergy/diaper rash?

We think our DS may be allergic or have an intorelence to eggs. Just recently when he has eggs he's been breaking out in a rash on his cheeks. He also had a really bad diaper rash at this time. Once the egg was out of his system the diaper rash cleared up. Has anyone heard of an egg allergy causing a diaper rash?

Re: Egg allergy/diaper rash?

  • i'm going through that right now.

    My son has a milk, soy, egg and peanut allergy and his soy was the lowest so we decided to give him some bread that had soybean oil in it.. within a few days he got a major diaper rash (and i know he didn't have BM issues that caused it).  He also started waking up at night.  So we just took it away again and next month we'll give it to him just to make sure it's not a coincidence. 

    So IMO it is possible to get a diaper rash due to an allergy.  There are a few here that have dealt with that also.

  • We get diaper rash with allergies. Any trials we've done have been introducing the allergen through the breastmilk and the first sign is an awful diaper rash.

  • yep.  Our younger son is dealing with this now.  It's dramatically better since I cut dairy and eggs.  I'm fairly certain that he has another food trigger too but the tiny bit of rash/dry skin spots he has left aren't bothering him so I'm not cutting anything else until we do his testing in October (my supply tanked the last time I did a total elmination diet so I'm worried to try it again since I'm also heading back to work and have lunch meetings to attend....)
