If it's itchy and inflamed, it could be eczema. Take him to a dermatologist.

Never hear of a rash that's caused from excessive sugar, does it itch or hurt? Does he get it when the weather is hot? Is it red, bumpy? The only thing I could think of would be eczema(since he's had it from childhood) If your that concerned tell him to go to the doctor

First, I have to wonder how much sugar he eats to think it could be the cause.
Could be simply allergies. Try hydrocortisone cream and Benadryl. If that doesn't work, then see a dermatologist.

I guess it's possible, I know a guy when he eats ketchup, he starts to sweat profusely, even if it is below freezing. I sat next to him in a business meeting and had flash backs to the Wizard Of Oz, when the witch melted. Later he found out it was vinegar he was allergic to....

Could be eczema. I believe it is caused by an allergic reaction. My son got it when he was little. I took him to an allergist. He is fine now.

Most probably its due to fungus. Goto a pharmacy and buy a wide spectrum antifungal cream and use it continuously for 40 days.

Sounds like he's allergic to something. See a doctor.
