Brief Answer:
This is very much like an allergy related rash!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I have reviewed this picture. It is very suggestive of an allergic reaction. I will suggest that you cleanse it an apply a corticosteroid cream to relieve itching. This would usually regress within a few days.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
