What Is The Cause Of Red Rash On Both The Legs And Around The Bottom?

MY 13 month old bagan a few weeks ago with several raised reddened, rash-like areas on both legs, upper and lower and even around her bottom. Now, there are pimple-like, reddish/purple raised areas in the center of the red rash area. Is it a bug bite? Or, should I be worried about an infection like MRSA? I know not to "pop" the pimples. It doesn't seem to be something that can be drained, though.

this is likely to be skin and soft tissue infection, may be due to some infection or even diaper use can lead to. As rash is present on both legs and bottom , you need to show the doctor and should take antibiotics as recommended to control the infection.
