Hi,

The rash could be an insect bite hypersensitivity reaction or acute eczema. The treatment options are usually same for both the condition. But, before initiating treatment, it is advisable to treat any infection, if present.

So, I highly recommend you to consult your dermatologist for further management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
