i di see GP who prscribed a cream which i used, it never seemed to clear up, but i have lost the cream

i wonder if this is quite a common problem and what other people use?

Try it and see what happens...if not buy a mild hydrocortisone cream which might work

slartybartfast · 02/02/2011 22:35

oh, can you buy that over the counter?

thanks for replying

No - sudocream dries things up. You need to moisturise.
Try E45 or acqueous cream (both over the counter). If continues go to GP again

Its not on the nipple is it? If so I'd ask your GP to take another look as that can need further checking out.
