What Could Cause Rash Under The Armpit And Stretch Mark Like Appearance There?

my 15 yr old daughter has an awful looking rash under her armpit down the side of her side. I also noticed what appears to be stretch marks, but when you touch it it seems like the skin was gouged. What could this be? I called a dermatologist to get her an appt but they were closed for the holiday.
