Sweat rash?

I've had an odd rash appear on tummy and spine. Doesn't really itch. In wondering if it could be caused by sweating in runs? I've now bought some more breathable tips but was wondering what I could do to get rid if it!?

dont know if it will definately help but I got the same rash on my rib cage under my bra strap & also when I wear my running armband, if I get really hot it leaves a horrid rash. I got a baby nappy cream from sainsburys. its called little ones. wasnt very expensive but cleared up the rash in no time. I also put this on now before I go for a run (just in case). well I did when my hip was ok & I could run a few weeks ago. hope it helps. shelley
