Many possibilites: There are many possibilities---impossible to tell what it could be without examination--start with your primary care physician and if need be the physician can refer you to a dermatologist.

Impossible to say: The list of things that can cause a rash in children is nearly infinite!! See your child's doctor to find out what type of rash it is and what treatment might be needed. Rashes can be caused by viruses, bacteria infections, allergies, irritants to the skin, insect bites, eczema, sensitivity to heat or cold. All sorts of things.
