Thank you, yes. I have a red heat rash (I think that is what it is) which deveoloped in June when I wore an old swimsuit to the beach and returned thinking when I took off the suit (two hours later) that it was sunburn because I had neglected to put sunscreen on the unexposed (I thought) area around my navel, near my hips and around the panty line area above my thighs. My question is since the rash has not gone away, could it be a skin infection instead?
If you have a sore and it oozes out fluid or plus, then it could be a sign of infection. Also, infection is associated with fever and fatigue. I recommend you to consult your Dermatologist for ruling out infection and to get treated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
