How to treat a large number of heat rashes on the body
Disease description:
During hot summer weather, people often develop heat rash (miliaria). After prolonged sweating, many small, itchy bumps may appear on the skin. How should this condition be treated?
Because prickly heat commonly occurs during hot summer weather, its treatment is relatively simple. First, apply pollen powder topically. Second, use calamine lotion for external application. Of course, if secondary infection develops, topical antibiotic ointment should be applied. In addition to proper treatment, prevention of prickly heat is equally important; otherwise, recurrence is highly likely. Patients should avoid hot environments as much as possible and maintain a cool surrounding environment to facilitate sweat evaporation. Wear loose, breathable, and dry clothing, bathe frequently, and keep the skin clean and dry. In daily life, gently pat sweat away with a dry towel, bathe with lukewarm water, and avoid spicy or irritating foods.
