Small Patch of Rash

My 2 year old son has a little patch of red, slightly bumpy rash on his skin, in the diaper area. I just thought it was a diaper rash, though it was just a little spot. I have been treating it with diaper rash cream, actually, with UW Diaper Balm, a really amazing cream that usually solves the worst cases of diaper rash.

I have a 15 month old son who has extremely sensitive skin and had horrible ezcema (sp?) since he was an infant. We found out that it was mostly caused by an allergy to pet dander so we had to give up our pug. Well, we have been using a prescription cream on him called A-Mantle since he was about 6 months old that our Pediatric Allergist prescribed (who is associated with CHOP). This cream is a hydrocortisone mixed with some other type of cream. We use it on him practically every single day (since he still has ezcema). I specifically...
