The Perineum is the region between the thighs, in the female between the vulva and the anus, in males, between the scrotum and the anus. Lynette Franklin, a clinical nurse in the MUSC Bladder and Pelvic Program, explains how to properly keep the perineum area clean and gives recommendations for a caregiver when dealing with rashes from diapers (for both children and adults) and incontinence.
