What Causes Rashes Under Arm And Chest?

I just noticed a rash under my son s arm, and down the left side of his chest.....no cold, no fever. His teacher also brought to my attention yesterday, that his one ear has been red and very hot too. Should I get him in immediately to attend to the rash or is it likely a viral infection?
