What Causes White Head Spot In The Corner Of Mouth?
my 8 month old baby woke up this morning with a whitehead spot in the corner of her mouth- surely she s too young to be getting spots?? She finished a course of antibiotics and anti-thrush medicine a week ago due to an infected rash under her neck from constant dribbling and reflux

Hi
Welcome to the HCM
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns but don't worry. The most likely reason for such lesions is fungal infection. So apply antifungal such as clotrimazole lotion for a week. Hopefully it will be of help. In case she doesn't respond then visit a dermatologist for proper clinical examination and definitive treatment.
Take care
