I use bag balm mixed with some Neosporin…work wonders with my babies…cause they also have ecxzema and sensitive skin which makes for awful diaper rashes
Aquaphor helps us. Hope he feels better soon!

I used powder with cornstarch, and warm soaks with it too
Witch Hazel instead of baby wipes, and Cetaphil cream which you can buy at Walmart or any drug store. It’s very rich, but not greasy and extremely mild with no fragrance or alcohol.
Corn starch
Just sprinkle it on his rash. Believe me. It works.
Maybe ask doctor for different antibiotics. My daughter is 7 was in amoxicillin and it gave her diarrhea bad near the end of her taking it . She ended up becoming extremely dehydrated because of it. Just be sure he doesn’t become dehydrated. They ended putting her on iv fluids bc of how dehydrated she was.
Go to pharmacy ask for Resinol-as they don’t have on shelves.
Egg whites slightly whisked don’t ask me how but works really well xx

Vaseline always worked wonders. Bath, air dry real good then vaseline.
Keep diaper off as much as you can. Let it breathe.
Vaseline - always used this with my daughter and it worked very well.
Mix cornstarch with Vaseline
I use browned flour. Just put some flour in a pan and heat it up until it turns brown. Works amazing! As well as letting him air dry and keep a diaper off as much as possible
Might want to let the doctor know in case there is a alternative antibiotic.
Seriously, you need to get Corona Ointment. Yes, it says its for horses/cows, etc., but this stuff is magic for diaper rashes!
Desitan doesn’t work, use balmex for the rash, it is amazing. I swear by it
May want to report this to the doctor as CDiff is a potential with antibiotic use

I love the aquaphor ointment and it really did heal my daughters rash in 6 hours like it said. Also my daughter was put on cultrelle probiotics at that age when taking antibiotics and it helped alot for the poopy diapers☺️ good luck!
Start giving probiotics a few hours after giving the antibiotics. Usually doctors will recommend that to prevent diarrhea in the first place

Shoot for an alternative antibiotic and use some A&D Ointment for the rash. Happened to my son once also as an infant. Something you’ll never forget 
Use warm wash cloths instead of wipes. Also, as weird as it sounds there is a paste called Corona that they use for horses. You can find it at a feed mill or co-op store. It works amazing! That’s the only thing that worked on my first 2 kids

Butt paste! Keep him dry, cornstarch powder and when changing his diapers gently get the poop off and get fragrance free wipes
Antibiotics can cause yeast infection rashes. Sometimes more than normal remedies are needed. If those dont help you may need to antifungal cream from the dr.
scorch some flour in an iron skillet and cool and put it on him also with diaper off and butt up hold a lamp with a while bulb in it not to close to his rash white lite heals
Pour diluted baking soda on it (1 Tbsp Baking Soda per 1 C Water) after each bath. Bathe him after every other poopy diaper until it clears up. Keep up the baking soda at least once or twice a day even after the rash is gone. Keep the Desitin too.
I’m literally going through this right now. My doc said to mix some mylanta with aquaphor into a paste. The mylanta is used for heartburn but will also help neutralize the acid in babies diarrhea. Use it every diaper change! She had a huge relief with it!
Beaudreau’s Butt Paste is a miracle worker when it comes to diaper rash, chafing or anything like that. It’s the only thing I use. I use it on my grands and us adults even use it from time to time especially during summer and fall sports
My son just went through this same scenario a month ago and the only thing that seemed to help was having some “naked time” (no diaper on) and Nystatin
Feed him yogurt everyday for 5 days that helps put bacteria back in his system and should stop some of the diarrhea. I would use destin then Vaseline on top of that then baby powder on top of that every time you change him.
Corn starch and lil water make a paste and apply
They need yogurt when they are taking antibiotics.

2 or 3 hours after his antibiotics give him a couple drops of probiotics, it will help balance him out. Dont give them at the same time because they kinda cancel eachother out if you do, but if there are hours in between his body will have time to absorb them both safely. I use baby aquaphor for my 7 month olds rashes, let his bottom fully dry before applying it and putting the diaper back on, dont do it while his bottom is still wet from the wipes.
If you breastfeed, pump 4 ish oz and put it in his bath tonight, or drip some drops of breastmilk directly on the rash.
Might be a yeast infection should contact your pediatrician for antifungal steroid cream.

My one year old was on 6 different antibiotics within 6 months due to reoccurring ear infections it eventually gave her cdiff due to all of the antibiotics but it also gave her very bad diarrhea her pediatrician ordered her something from the pharmacy to put on her and it cleared it up very fast it’s called nystatin

Lansinol, it comes in a purple tube, it is for dry, cracked nipples for breastfeeding mothers. It is very thick, it is Lanolin. Put a thin layer of this on and then a layer of your usual diaper cream. This should provide a protective layer between his skin and everything else. My son would get horrible diarrhea when he was teething, he would cry when he would go, it was awful. One of my mommy friends shared this with me, his diaper rash was clear within 24 hours. He was pain free with the initial use.
Yogurt and Merle Norman’s Super Lube! It’s the most amazing stuff ever
Cook flour in a cast iron pan until browned. Use like a powder.
It has to be a cast iron pan.
Aquaphor is the best! I used it during radiation for colon cancer & didn’t get radiation burn despite 28 days of treatment. Heals, protects & soothes.
Aquaphor is always my go to
Go and buy mineral oil —/ yes it’s considered a laxative but if you apply some on his bottom you’ll see a difference the next day —— best thing I ever used when my son got bad rashes !
Vaseline is good as it makes a barrier to any wee/poo doesn’t stick to their bum. Also try giving him bath or shower instead of using wipes to prevent rubbing

When my little guy had diaper rash I would give him a bath, gently clean the area and then put boudreaux’s butt paste maximum strength. Worked great.
Mix 1 part liquid antacid and 2 parts A&D ointment. Trust me this is amazing the rash will be gone in 1 day
Aquarphor for sure (give him a good layer of it to protect his skin), yogurt, and talk to his doctor. If he is having diarrhea that much they may want to take him off the antibiotics or switch to a different one.
Old school put vaseline on his bottom to ease the rash.believe it banana and applesause ease the diarrhea
Lansinol! It works great!
I always had to get a cream from the doctor because it’s not your typical diaper rash. It’s basically a yeast infection on the skin

Probiotics. And ask your dr for nystatin ointment. More than likely it’s yeast. Do not use anything it can eat (cornstarch, breast milk etc) as this will make it worse. 
you could even mix nystatin with desitin to cover all your bases.

Try a cloth diaper. It helps a ton with letting air get to their booty. I literally would hold the cloth diapers on with toddler underwear.

My daughter had multiple ear infections that came with bad rashes from antibiotics & diarrhea. I used the 7 day Mycelex and Dr Smiths bum cream, per her doctor. She never had another bad rash again…first signs I applied and they were gone overnight.

I used baking soda in my babes bath and it really helped with a rash from diarrhea. I agree with no wipes use cloth and water or soap and water. And air dry. Its probably yeast. Not diaper rash.

My doctor had me use A&D mixed with Maalox. It sounds weird but she said the Maalox will kill the acid from the bm before it gets to the skin. It definitely helped
Put the diaper on as loosely has possible and also let him air dry as much as possible. My infant was very mobile when he had his rash and I had to line my living room floor with towels but the air time really helps!
Baking soda baths and lots of naked time… invest in some puppy pads and let him nap on them naked.
Cornstarch or scorched flour
Mix desitin and Vaseline together or call your pediatrician and get a prescription for silverdene my son had the same problem he scream with diaper change these are the only thing that worked
Clean him after every single diaper changed with luke warm water. Let him dry out without his diaper and put Aquaphor on him with a loose diaper. He will start healing rapidly. It’s ok mama. You got this!

If possible let him be naked at nap time use puppy pads they are less expensive than the chux they use for adults and it’s the same thing . Or if money is a problem get a rubber sheet and cover with a diaper for naked time ,it’s washable
Make sure he isn’t having reaction to medicine
If he is having diarrhea that bad I would be concerned about dehydration. Fluids alone isn’t enough. He needs electro likes
Corn starch all the way

yogurt will restore the microbes; blow dryer will make sure his bum is good and dry before a light layer of desitin
I stop medication and ask for something else.
I agree, mix corn starch with Vaseline and use with every daiper change.
Maalox and Desitin or A&D ointment mixed together. My youngest son was in the NICU on crazy meds when he was born. That is what they pot on him. It works wonders.

If his medication is going through him I would be going back to the doctor as it actually won’t be doing. Much U can get ear drops in antibiotic form I wouldn’t use wipes just a warm cloth followed by curash cream and curash powder over the top
My middle had the same thing happen she ended up being allergic to the ear infection meds.
Meds may be strong for him? And I had to start using bag balm instead of desitin or A&D. And lots of time in a bath of warm water. Also I gave ibuprofen during the worst of it.
Triple Paste diaper cream worked miracles on my daughter when she was younger and suffered from lots of diarrhea due to a medical issue. And make sure to change the diapers as soon as they get dirty.
I give my baby a bath with some baking soda in it. After I make sure to apply a generous amount of desitin and usually clears up within a day or two.
Google the hair dryer method for diaper rash. You will thank me later.
My daughter is allergic to amoxicillin (ear infection meds) and this sounds similar. Blistering rash, diarrhea. Take him back to the doctor.

feed him yogurt, if its yeast infection put plain yogurt ,oatmeal baths tooon his butt
You coukd put some oatmeal in a cloth or old sock and drop it in the bath, give him a nice oatmeal soak then let him air dry. Triple PASTE also works like magic. Air as much as possible
Use Vagisil…it really helps - effectively this is your worst yeast infection on your baby’s bum. Coat it, then let him be naked.
Bag balm works good and find it at your grocery store
Take your child to the doctor
I used Vaseline after every diaper on my grandson. It really helps
Bag Balm will protect him from the burn when he goes. Put him in the bath to soak rather than wiping him. Bag Balm is like vaseline but has camphor in it to heal.
