What Causes Red And Itchy Rash Under The Armpit?

My son aged 14 started with a rash (red pimple like under one armpit) which then spread to the other. Our doctor prescribed hydrosole cream and klacid tablets 250mg which he has taken for 4 days. The rash under both armpits has changed appearance and has gotten larger, itchy and very red. Now I am worried he is might be having a reaction to the medicine?
