brie has a little rash around the sides of her mouth, like where her nuk would be.
it's little red bumps, kinda looks alittleee like heat rash.

she had this once before but more recently.. so i'm thinking its from the heat and the nuk.
she is teething so that means extra spit so that's probably adding to it.

do you know anything to put on it to make it go away?
or atleast improve it?

i feel bad, i don't know if it itches her or hurts her!

edited because i'm pretty sure the nuk is causing it bc she hasn't had her nuk in a little and its fading!

Most likely the pacifire like you said, probably causing the spit to pool in the corners of her mouth. I think if you just take the Nuk away for a while and try to keep her mouth as dry as possible in those areas it should go away, Seamus has had similar happen from his Nuk too.

Autumn has the SAME thing right now. its a heat rash.. she also has a cold!! so her snott has been making it worst.. I think it does hurt her.. we took her to the Dr. he gave us some meds.. by mouth.. I dont think any kind of cream would be good, they could easly wipe it in their mouth.. good luck

Rub some baby powder on it ... that's what I do to Owen's rashes like that and they go away. If it's a heat rash, I don't think anything can really help

The moose gets the same when he sucks on his pacifier for a while or falls asleep with it in his mouth.

It goes away when I take it out of his mouth and don't give it to him for half an hour.

Does she have a fever or a rash anywhere else?? If she has a rash on her tushy or her palms or has a fever...I would take her to the doctor. It could be hand/foot/mouth disease. I doubt, but it could be.

But really, like the other ladies said, it is most likely just a minor bacterial infection from her having her paci in her mouth, creating a wet environment around her mouth, allowing for some bacteria to grow and cause a minor rash. Nothing to worry about. It really isn't something "fix," but it will go away on it's own.
