8. Apple Cider Vinegar...

...use Bragg's brand. It's organic and has what's called ”the mother” in it, which means its not clear like the regular store brands.

You should apply it topically as well as internally. If your rash is too painful, try diluting it some.

Another thing I would consider is baking soda. A teaspoon in water to drink, as well as making a poultice. I would use zinc (diaper rash cream in a tube) or antibiotic salve to add the baking soda to and apply it to the rash after using acv with a cotton pad.

Good luck...
