hi,
according to your description there is possibility of,
-fungal infection,
-seborrheic dermatitis,
-atopic dermatitis,
so you better visit local dermatologist and get examined to find out the actual cause and nature of the rash,
depending on that treatment can be taken,
usage of steroids with out doctor's advice will decrease the immunity and make problem more severe, so don't do that.
take care.
