Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to a viral infection.
I suggest to do a complete blood count for further evaluation.
The rash is probably due to sweat rash.
I recommend using breathable clothes and calamine lotion for local application.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
