Is Just Using Vaseline Be Advisable For Painful Rash On Top Of Thigh?

hi, my 10 year old son has started to get a painful rash at the top of his thigh after playing out in the cold weather. A bath seems to help, and having just applied Vaseline, that also seems to help. Is this something I should be taking him to the doctor for?
