Dear Friend
Welcome to Health care magic. I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I will shortly try to help you with my opinion.

Such rash can be due to a number of reasons. The most likely possibility is miliria rubra. In such cases, i advise my patients to have cold compreses with antihistaminics like levocetrizine.


Based on the available details, this is my best advice for you. You should discuss with your doctor and share my opinion, I am sure he/she will agree to my opinion. If you wish to discuss the problem further , you may please ask.
Stay Healthy.
