My little one had this due to spit up and drool! We would clean it with a wet paper towel and then we’d use A & D ointment on it and within 24 hours it cleared up! 💜

Keep it clean and use aquaphor

My baby has this on his underarms!

Wash and dry it really well + a good barrier cream high in Zinc! My pediatrician just recently suggested that and it was gone overnight

You want clotrimazole antifungal cream for that for sure

I use organic coconut oil for my little one (he’s 4mnths) it really helps

What worked for us were baths, washcloth that area gently, dry it and put very good moisturiser on it. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Eucerin-Eczema-Relief-Creme-Ounce/dp/B00GMZUS2M/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?crid=11EL4MB1ACO5Q&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.7O12Xa8RBa_aDmXuv6Mvy0DrowTBnCIqFKNdFgbZh38GWlz5Xmz9VHDAy3qOayUrLauWjCmI9DJfqcGKWZm16HXpkxc7tbvh7mi29qiJeGjFIeVGimlVqxEolnrfsTuSflbvRcjjlJoZY61T6X9os6iFTCOuFDb07Auqv4hQTKRF3dKKBoNTP68WMpwtWW4QeLMSOPlAsvC8mXER120OAA.DtKlPxwwdSnXMJ3wyMr7HfnTYyvwT3mAPNxoFCLMTkE&dib_tag=se&keywords=eucerin+eczema+relief+cream+baby&qid=1742985646&sprefix=euceein+e%2Caps%2C167&sr=8-4

Oof... Agreed with the above. Wash, dry, THICK barrier ointment. Reapply frequently.

Ours looked like that then he started bleeding 😭

My son had something like this. His was drool rash. We had to wash it every night and use aquafor with zinc. It took a long time to go away but it did eventually

Corn starch never fails keeping it dry!

We use aquaphor and our pediatrician also said diaper cream can add as much barrier so it doesn't get this bad!

Avatar

Slap some baby cream on it and keep it dry sis. You're good

Looks similar to what my son had... the doctor prescribed clotrimaderm for fungus however it didn't seem to work. I started thinking it was eczema and used his eczema lotion on it and that worked...

Oh my gosh! My baby has the same thing! I call it his neck cheese! I just try to clean it as often as possible, and yeah try to keep it dry.. maybe rash cream would work there?

He gets milk that drips down in there and then it gets trapped
