Detailed Answer:
Thanks for using the Ask a Doctor service.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. Firstly, I would need to ask the age of the child. I have checked the attached image. It seems that your child has developed allergic rashes. The sweat could be contributory and there could be a fungal component associated alongwith. You may give some antiallergic like Cetirizine Drops (or possibly better ones like Atarax (hydroxizine) which is a prescription medicine). You also need to apply some emollient like calamine lotion or some moisturizer like aloe vera lotion over those areas.
If the child is active and playful, you need not worry. But if the child seems lethargic it would be advisable to take him to a pediatrician and to get the bloodwork done.
It might take a few days to recover and so you need to be patient.
Let me know if I could help further.
