hi there
my 6 month old has had a runny nose for the past week and the skin around his nose and cheeks is starting to get red and chapped looking. it looks sore for the poor little guy.

does anyone have any recommendations of a cream or moisturiser i could put on to help things heal a bit?
thanks

I used. Vaseline for my kids, worked great for them, poor little thing, hope he gets better soon.

Vaseline would be best.

Again I found Vaseline brilliant when they have a runny nose, AVEENO also worked wonders for my lil guy when he had patches of excema so it might be good too

Another nod for Vaseline.. also if your baby's nose is a little blocked.. Massaging a little Vaseline across the bridge their nose works great for decongesting..
