Are these patches itchy and scaly. It could be due to fungal infection. There could be sweat accumulation and bad hygiene causing this. Keep the body free from sweat accumulation, take bath regularly, change clothes regularly. Use cool cotton clothes. You need to show to a Dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment as what you described can be due to many possibilities.
