Dribble rash?

***update***** For anyone with the same problem, we went to the pharmacy and they called the doctors and got us an appointment straight away, it was a fungal infection and they gave us Daktacort (contains steroid). It’s clearing up quickly and she’s not had any side effects so far. My girl has a dribble rash (I think) all over her neck. We can’t get hold of the doctors and I’ve tried treating it at home (keeping it clean and dry, sudocrem etc) but it seems to be getting worse and she’s got so many chins it’s hard to keep dry. Has anyone been to the doctors about it? What was the treatment? I don’t know if it’s irritating her as she’s still herself but it doesn’t look like it’s improving 😣 *im not going to stop trying to get her into the doctors, trying to get advice for until she can be seen :)

My dad told me to apply Vaseline every day it acts as a barrier sudocrem I don’t find it very good but Vaseline is amazing, also I know it’s kinda hard but if she’s dribbling and then going outside it’s causing her to become chapped so try keeping her inside for a few days and hopefully it will start clearing up x

Thank you❤️

@Hope id definitely try the Vaseline though but keep trying the drs xx

We found the bandana bibs worked best when the dribble was the worst and changed them hourly. I think we used sudacrem on his rash bits....

We have been using a dribble balm by my expert midwife which has worked well as a barrier. And once clean and dry an anti fungal cream from the pharmacist. Still haven't been able to make it go away, these things have just helped it not get worse. Will be asking my health visitor next week so will post any more suggestions here after that x

Thank you all so much!! Will give it all a try ❤️
