A member asked:

How long should it take for a baby yeast infection in the neck skin to go away?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Less than a week...: ...If that's what it is, and if you treat it with the correct cream. If it's still there after a week, one of the above "if"s is untrue, and you should see your pediatrician or a dermatologist.
