What Causes Body Rash For A Baby Even After Applying Desowen Cream?

Hi, my eight month old son started developing prickly heat like rash at the corner of his mouth and then on his nose and below the eyes as well... These rashes seem to subside when he sleeps in the night but becomes very red when the room is hot or when he starts sweating...he is also teething now and has a couple of teeth coming up...could the rash be due to teething or could it be due to any infection/allergy ? His doc prescribed desowen cream to be put but I m worrie to use it on my baby. Kindly let me know if my concern abt Desowen is justifiable ? Also do suggest other mild creams if any. Thank you.

Its non infective rash.
Its likely to be due to deficiency of vitamin
Giving him Vitamin supplement will be helpful.
Local Glycerine application will be beneficial
