rebound rash

hi there. I've only just joined so I apologise if this has been asked before. My daughter (4 yo) has just stopped using the mask inhaler. 3 days later she has developed a rash around her mouth, covering her nose and chin. I suspect some sort of steroid withdrawal, similar to long term hydro cortisone use. Has anyone else experienced this? many thanks

Hi Rosie304

I asked the nurse team your question and they said they hadn't seen anything similar but to keep an eye on it and if it isn't settling or gets uncomfortable to see the pharmacist or doctor.

Hope that helps,

Dita
