Hello
I have gone through your complaints and it could be a viral rash or eczematous rash.
I would recommend you to apply cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet Cetrizine twice daily for 10 days.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
