Hi,

It would be very difficult to say anything without having a look at the lesions.

What is your age? Are you on any medications currently? This could be due to an allergic reaction to some unknown substance or secondary to insect bite etc or due to heat rash. But nothing can be said with surety without a clinical examination.

You should wash the area and keep it clean, apply calamine lotion at the site and take some oral antihistamine or antiallergic medications like loratadine or cetrizine for your symptoms.

It would be best to consult a skin specialist if the rash does not resolve in a few days. You should get the relevant investigations as advised by your doctor including blood work.

Let us know about what your skin specialist advises and if you have any other doubts.

Post us about how you are doing.

Regards.

Hi,

In case of an allergic reaction, the management is to to try and relieve the symptoms and also find out the cause of the allergy. Have you received a prescription for the same? have you and your doctor tried to find the cause  of the allergy? Perhaps the heat is the cause?

Please let us know the answers to these questions. You may use anti-histamines and calamine lotion till the time, if a prescription has not been supplied.

Best regards
