Need Help With Rashes And Breath And Stool That Smell Like Marijuana

My 10-month old has a rash that started in his diaper area and now is all over his body. All of my friends say it is a yeast rash, but clotrimazole and nystatin are not helping, though it hasn t gotten worse since using them. Also, his breath and his stool smell like marijuana since this all started! And no one in the family uses pot!
