    hello! it doesn't look like herpes to me. you could have gotten a sun rash from being outside and in the heat. Or it could be contact dermatitis. It usually happens a lot in summer time when there is friction with your skin and clothes, specially if it isn't a natural fiber like cotton that lets your skin breath.
