Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello, this location is prone for sweating and small bumps could very well be miliaria or heat rash..I would adv you to be in air conditioned chamber (if possible), apply a talc on the site two-three times daily, wear loose clothes and take tab Levocetrizine 5mg at bedtime for 5 days
The condition should improve and subside with these
Thanks
Take care
