Sores: Are any of the lesions filled with pus. I would thing staph or MRSA infection. If the sores are more acute more likely bug bites or something like that. Unlikely a dermatitis. Get checked if bothering you so.

Rash: Hi, Sorry to hear about your trouble. It seems you have a fungus infection and you need treatment, although it's hard to make a diagnosis of a rash without close examination. Please see your provider for evaluation and treatment.

See dermatologist: These lesions may or may not be related but when a lesion fails to heal on the scalp, one needs to rule out a skin cancer as well.
