Hi,
The rash could be an eczema or a tinea infection (fungal infection). Eczema could be managed by steroid cream whereas tinea infection worsens with steroid. So, I request you to consult your dermatologist for arriving at a final diagnosis and for initiating proper treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
