Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thank You for contacting HCM. My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.

I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. There is a possibility that rash could be due to an insect bite or heat rash. I would suggest you not to worry and continue with your normal daily routine. Hopefully it will settle itself in few days BUT if you observe that the condition remains same, aggravates or unusual symptom appears then in that case you need to visit hospital for further management.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
