Brief Answer:
Most likely allergic rashes

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for asking on this platform

I have seen the images and to me it appears to be allergic rashes.
Here treatment with oral anti allergic like cetrizine/hydroxyzine syrup with application of mild steroid ointment locally helps.
I won't get worried as this is not a serious condition and improves with treatment in most of the cases.
I request you to consult your pediatrician for prescription of medication.

I hope this helps.
I shall be glad to help you out if you have any more query.
Regards
