Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It looks like rash due to exposure to the excessive sun. It occurs due to sweat glands getting blocked, resulting in clogged sweat ducts (Miliaria crystallina, rubra, pustulosa or profunda). Sweat accumulates on the skin and clothes. Stop using creams for oily lotions. Use calamine, Hydrocortisone cream for relieve. Keep keep clean and dry, avoid too much heat exposure in the sun. Take plenty of plain water, juice, soups.
You can get examined to rule out fungal, bacterial infections or Eczema.

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