Default Probably not gluten related

But...you guys seem to know so much, I'm hoping you can possibly help me figure this out.

What could cause a rash that starts on the inside thigh and spreads up under the pany-line?

My youngest has been dealing with a rash (diaper rash without diapers? Yeast like infection? Vulvitis? I don't know what to call it. The dr says when its really bad its vulvitis. But, has no cure. GRRR! He also said it looks nothing like a yeast rash.) Its been going on for about 3 weeks. I can not for the life of me figure out what is triggering it to worsen or improve, but yeast treatments and various ointments are NOT cutting it.

Then tonight, my oldest came in and said her bottom was bothering her. And showed me her legs, which have a nice pinprick rash on the inside thighs. She's prone to this kind of rash...I usually think of it as some sort of allergy...but realize that it always happens worst this time of year. At least, the past couple of years.

All I can think is yeast or mold (its been a little rainy, not overly so, but...enough) I'm doing acidophilus, and using an antifungal cream (now on both kids) with pain killer in it...the dr says to just give them tylenol (he's obviously a *he*) Can anyone think of anything else I can do or am missing? I know its not gluten related...but if anyone can come up with really great ideas, I figured it would be you guys. (At least...you won;t give me the "Well, why don't you take them to the dr?" spiel. LOL)
