Hi..
Thanks for the query..
It can be most probably due to allergic reaction as you are known allergic already..
Other causes can be Miliaria that is due to blocked sweat ducts.

For now keep the areas clean, use petroleum jelly to keep lubricated, do cool compresses to see if it improves..
Hope this helps..

It could be due to allergy or eczema
Autoimmune conditions can also cause such rash
Its best to get investigated.
Consult a physician soon
Take care
