Hello,
The rash on the armpit seem to be related to a fungal infection. It does not seem to be related to the use of alcohol. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole cream for local application. I also suggest to prevent sweating.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
