Six month old mouthed cloth with vapour rub, should I seek help?

My 6 month old baby has a cold and managed to pull down a cloth that had a little bit of snuffle babe vapour rub on and it was in her mouth (was tied to the crib, I didn’t think she could reach). Not for long as I woke up when she did but I’m worried. I’ve wiped her mouth and hands, I’ve just fed her and she’s asleep on me and seems fine? There’s no comphor in it but not sure if need to take her in to A&E?

It sounds like she is fine but ring 111 just because of the ingredients in it

Thank you for replying, I’ll call mow. Feel like an idiot

Don’t worry OP. I wouldn’t tie anything onto the cot though.

I wouldn’t worry unless she’s sick. Mine eats all sorts
