Hello

Redness and itching is more in favour of allergic rash. It may be due to insect bite or allergy to new cloths.
In my opinion if it is limiting to mild itching you may wait and watch. If it is progressive than antihistamine and local steroids may help.
Consult your doctor for more information.
