He is known to have eczema, but right now his chin is completely raw. What can I put on him to prevent infection?

Hello Ma'am,
In such a situation, one must first protect the skin from the irritation caused by the child's saliva, which I believe is the most common cause of a raw chin in children of this age.
To do this, one should apply Vaseline™ to the mention after getting out of the bath and after each face wash (e.g., meal) for at least 6 days.
If that's not enough, get back to me. I'm leaving this conversation open :)
