Rash on the neck

2024-01-24 10:42:25
My 3 month old is developing a rash on her neck. The doctor prescribed Atonide H for the rash. Initially the rash went away and we stopped the medicine. But the after a day or two the rash appeared again. The doctor again recommended extensive moisturization and Atonide H twice a day but the rash is not going away. It is rather spreading more. What is causing this?

Possibly an insect bite

Health Tips
Apply Atonide H only on the rash. Calamine on entire area
