Brief Answer:
This seems sweat dermatitis
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Thanks for reverting back with photos.
This seems to be sweat dermatitis. Mostly you need to wear lose cotton clothes over this part, cool showers, air conditioned rooms. Avoid heavy exercise or other situations that can produce sweating.
Apply betnovate cream over the affected area twice a day for 3-5 days.
If this doesnot resolve the rash, then a closer look by dermatologist is needed.

Thank you Doctor. However, I do cardio exercise regularly inside my house as I believe in healthy living. So, how can I handle this.
Brief Answer:
Better to exercise in cooler room
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Yes its good to exercise but after the rash disappears. This heat rash should disappear with some precautions in few days. You can re-start exercising after that. Or exercise in a room that has cooler temperature. Better to not exercise during noon time. Early morning or evening hours are better. Basically we need to avoid sweating.

Thank you Doctor, noted your advice.
However, this summer season anywhere anytime we exercise we will sweat.
I hope walking and low intensity yoga will be good options in my case.
