The symptoms you had mentioned are mostly due to some sort of fungal infection. For treatment you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl after an expert opinion along with avil or cetrizine for rashes behind the ear, neck and cheek. You can use betnovate-c cream or candid-b powder for local application. Maintain the hygiene of local part as much as you can.
