What you describe seems like sweat dermatitis or heat rash.
He should try to keep the area dry and clean. Try some powder to absorb the sweat. Use a medicated sunscreen lotion - preferably one prescribed by a skin specialist.
If the symptoms are still persistent, consult a dermatologist and get a proper clinical evaluation done.
Let us know if you have any doubts and keep us posted on how he is doing.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
