Slobber Rash

[ShootingStar]

Does anyone know how to get rid of or stop a slobber rash? Jesse has one on his chin from his dribble and has been there for over a week and doesnt look like its clearing up and as he just dribbles on it all day.
Can you use something like nappy rash creme or is the face too sensitive for that? And is it bad if they get any in their mouth from their chin?

TIA

i've always found paw paw cream to work with a dribble rash. It comes in a red container, fantastic for heaps of things!

Oh ok cool, thanks Dee. Do you get it at Woolies or at a chemist?

Cool yeh we'll look Friday then for it. I use Sudocream on his nappy rash and thats usually gone over night but yeh dont know if you can put that near their mouth. Just trying to keep his dummy in as much as i can today and keep the area dry.

PawPaw cream is great for nappy rash, lip balm, dribble rash, and kind of skin irriation really. Its really soothing. You can get it at a supermarket sometimes, chemist, priceline also have it.

Cool thanks Dee.. will pick some up tomorrow as its not getting better anytime soon by the looks of it.

Another tip to PREVENT it from happening.......

Vaseline!

It acts as a barrier and won't let it get wet around that area

Works great

Good Luck!
