5 Year Old Have Bed Wetting Habit. Developed Rash On Back And Thighs. What Is The Problem?

Thank you for your query and uploading the photograph.
The rash does not appear to be a fungal infection. If it is improving with aloe that you are applying then observe for a few more days. If there is no improvement then it shall be better to take a dermatological opinion.
You must be taking steps to control his bed wetting. A few steps that I can suggest are:
1. Avoid giving him any fluids/liquids after 6 PM.
2. Ensure that he passes urine before retiring to bed.
3. After an hour of his going to bed do wake him up to go to the toilet to relieve himself. This step shall be difficult but is necessary so that he does not wet later.
4. Reward him for his dry nights. Ask him to put stars on a calendar for dry nights.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction. Please feel free to revert back for any clarifications that you may require.
Wishing your son all the best...
Regards,
RKK
