I had the same problem on my back, behind the knees, feet, back of my neck... anywhere I sweated excessively. It's like a prickly heat, almost feels like mites of some sort. So I tried some top notch 'mite/lice/scabies lotion' which reduced the itching a bit but couldn't irradicate it. Turns out it's Kandida!!! A kind of fungal condition created mainly by sweat that cannot escape easily from the skin. I just used a good anti-perspirant spray and washed more often. All anti-perspirants have anti-fungal in them; the relief comes in a matter of a minute or so. Start wearing clothing that breaths better and allow the sweat off your back and any other part of your body to evaporate faster/better.
