Skin issues including diaper rashes often require an exam or at least a detailed description to offer treatment suggestions. As written, there is not enough information to respond.

This may reflect that there is skin inflammation which is more difficult to treat. Other more rare causes include immune deficiency. Has the baby had other infections such as pneumonia? The skin regimen should include gentle soap and water, keeping the diaper open to air as much as possible, frequent diaper changes and high quality absorbent diapers. Watch for blister formation and fever.PCP appt
