alot of these could be a heat rash.
it's just from sweating. gold bond powder and long shorts... that's the ticket!

Hi,

What you describe seems like sweat dermatitis or heat rash.

You should try to keep the area dry and clean. Try some powder to absorb the sweat.

Use a medicated sun screen whenever you are outdoors; try to avoid direct sun exposure, use calamine lotion at the sites to help soothe the lesions.

If the symptoms are still persistent, consult your dermatologist and get a proper clinical evaluation done.

Let us know if you have any doubts and keep us posted on how you are doing.

Good luck.
