Severe Diaper Rash

Moms - I need your help! My son cannot wear Pampers pull-ups and when he does he breaks out into severe diaper rash and it looks awful!

11 Month Old Has Had Diarrhea for Almost a Week. HELP!

I have a beautiful 11 month old boy who "caught a bug" last week and quickly recovered. However, the diarrhea has remained and his poor little bottom is so raw! The doctor says not to worry, that the diarrhea just takes a little longer to get over and it can hang on awhile.

He is acting normally until he "goes," then he starts to whimper because it hurts. Any suggestions, PLEASE?
