Common Questions and Answers about Heat rash acne

heat

Avatar n tn I have had a heat rash on my neck, beside the jawline now for 14 years. I have been to a few Dr's who have said "Its just a heat rash, nothing you can do about it". My question, can a heat rash last for this long? Its been in the same place and has never spread. Its definately gets worse in the heat, it itches like crazy.
Avatar f tn Rashes are common in pregnancy so I've read. I had a heat rash right on my chest between my boobs and it itched like crazy, just use some cortezone twice daily and try not to scratch...if it gets worse I would contact your Dr.
Avatar f tn I have had urticaria in the past from heat rash and the rash did not have little white heads. It is likely that you are sweating more and the pores are getting blocked up hence the little white heads. It also looks from the photo that you have an oily skin, and these type of spots are quite common on that type of skin. Have you noticed at all apart from the sun, whether this is linked to round the time of your period?
338963 tn?1253660822 IT SHOULD GO AWAY ON ITS OWN AND COULD BE HEAT RASH BECAUSE BABIES DONT REGULATE HEAT OR COLD THE WAY WE DO SO EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY THINK HE IS NOT IN THE HEAT JUST YOU HOLDING HIM OR SWADDLING HIM IN A BLANKET COULD BE THE CAUSE.
971443 tn?1282560078 About two months ago I had what I thought were acne on my chest, at first there were only a couple of them, but after a day or two they spread all over my chest. They are very itchy and it seems that when I scratch them they get inflamed and red. Since I`m in the process of moving, I am yet to go choose my new doctor, so I went to a pharmacist and she gave me a corticosteroid cream after looking at my condition. The cream helped, but only for a short time, after which it became worse.
Avatar n tn I have an itchy acne like rash on my chest. The rash is made up of acne like sores on the hair follicles, but unlike acne, they itch, and they are generally small without an acne like whitehead. When squezzed there is only a little puss and blood. The rash is generally confined to one small area, although it seems to have spread a bit lately. I first tried treating it by cleansing the area and putting some mild cortisone cream on it.
Avatar f tn About a year ago, I developed a RASH on my chest that is similar looking to acne in that it has red spots with tiny, very superficial white heads. Since this was the first rash breakout I mistook it for acne and used an acne spot treatment (benzyl peroxide 2.5%) The next morning my skin was itchy and extremely irritated, and I realized it was a rash and not pimples and the benzyl peroxide irritated it a lot. I then used calamine and benedryl topical lotion with little results.
Avatar f tn Stress can cause some issues with breakouts, but if they are itchy- I'd wonder if they are something other then pimples. It could be something like a heat rash, but it doesn't hurt to get a doctor to take a look at it.
Avatar f tn after awhile they went away...but i found that it is either heat rash or acne and not all acne medicine will take acne away....I was wondering are they just tiny bumps or larger.....????
8324906 tn?1398158808 It's not acne though more like allergic reactions to bites... But they all look different and no one else is getting bit. Could yours maybe be heat bumps?

Avatar f tn Over night the rash turned into very tiny acne like bumps, and within hours those bumps developed even smaller heads on them. When I itch them the head pops, never bleeds and it seeps and crusts over and starts to heal. These bumps have since started to spread up my neck and across my chin and now up the sides of my face and onto my forehead -- all the places I applied the sun screen, but I also applied it on other exposed areas that didn't get the rash.
Avatar m tn Still today I see few of them showing up and disappearing. When I asked someone they told me, it is due to heat and called heat rash. I stayed in place where it sweats profusely, and really skin burns. But now I am in very cold place, and you know it is already winter. If these are due to heat rash, they should be gone by now. When I asked the girl, she told me there is no such thing for her, if you have doubt get tested. Can anyone analyze and tell me what are my chances of having HIV.
Avatar f tn Yes! Im 21 weeks and this whole pregnancy I've had horrible acne and itchy bumps on my arms. It's driving me crazy!
Avatar n tn I have recently posted about these red blotches on my face that i have had for about 10 months now. This is a picture after a shower. Heat tends to make it worse. Does anybody have any ideas??
Avatar f tn The really hot days stay inside. Your baby might get heat rash, diaper rash and baby acne because of the heat. Babies are made to survive so just keep an eye out and watch for cues.
Avatar n tn Hello, It can be due to folliculitis skin or heat rash or dermatitis skin. Apply some topical antiseptics. Also wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove. Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Topical antibiotics like Neosporin is also useful. In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case.
Avatar f tn My boy had it, I had him at docs cause he had v bad diarrhoea for a couple weeks (viral thing) and the dr mentioned his skin to me and gave me Dermol 500 cream for it, can be used as a cream on its own or as a soap substitute for getting washed and it cleared his skin up in less than a week x
Avatar n tn If I go to the beach or take a hot shower they tend to get very red and the numbers multiply. It seems to be affected by the heat. They do not itch nor bother me besides the discoloration of the skin. I feel it has something to do with my allergies, but everything I take( Benadryl, Zyrtec, even some allergy cremes) only seem to stop it until they wear off. I have had more stress recently, so maybe it is related, also have had several acne appear on my back, which is very uncommon for me.
Avatar m tn hI, Cholinergic urticaria is a subcategory of physical urticaria (aka hives) that is a skin rash brought on by a hypersensitive reaction to body heat. Symptoms follow any stimulus to sweat such as exercise (sometimes called exercise-induced urticaria), heat from the sun (which could also indicate solar urticaria), saunas, hot showers (reaction to water can also indicate water urticaria), spicy foods which may cause an increase in body temperature or even stress due to blushing or anger.
Avatar f tn She doesn't have a fever, she has like allergy on her body but not alot, it's mostly on her cheeks it just started like little allergy that i thought it was gonna go away then it started to spread around her face she's been having it since last week and it's not going away :(
Avatar m tn A urinalysis and urine culture may be done to help determine if a UTI is present .Heat rash may also be a differential here especially in areas of the arm pits or in well covered areas. Have these tests done first so that the right management be given you.
