Suggest Remedy For Neck Folds In Infants

My baby has neck fold that are becoming very red and irritated looking. I wash her neck daily with warm water to clean breastmilk and drool but can seem to clear up the red parts. It looks rather raw now and irritated when I run my finger along it while cleaning. What can I use? Barrier cream like desitin or is it a yeast rash where clotrimazole might help?
