| Master 6 months is dribbling like nothing before and combined with a runny nose has developed a gross dribble rash. Does anyone have any decent creams they use? Is it worth taking him to the doctor or does it clear up on its own accord? |

DD had this pretty bad, I would recommend getting some Mum2Mum dribble bibs. They helped clear her rash up really quickly. -------------

| a bit of bepanthan might help? or a barrier cream to keep the dribble out while it heals? |

| If it's really bright red it could need some medicated cream - I'd take him to the doctor just to check. We got some antifungal, antibacterial, hydrocortisone cream (pimafucort) to put on my son's terrible rash and it cleared it up really quickly. |

| The nurses at neonatal gave us zinc and castor oil cream to use and it is totally awesome - cleaned everything up really well (they used to get manky under their chins). |
