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 n tn 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 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 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 , heat from the sun, saunas, hot showers , spicy foods which may cause an increase in body temperature or even stress due to blushing or anger. Some people only have symptoms during the winter months where their body temperature rises when it is unacclimatized to heat.

Avatar n tn One of the doctors said something about it being a heat rash and using benadryl cream for the itch. How can heat rash be prevented? Does suntan lotion help? This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/243359'>tiny little red itchy bumps</a>.
Avatar n tn hey teak! just wondering if you could spare a moment im on my 7th week now and theres still this nagging rash that won't go away..basically I have a definite heat rash (red and a bit sandpaperish sometimes itchy when hot) at the base of my neck and 2/3 of my upper chest and a few faint pimples here and there at the centre which don't itch at all..does this sound like an ars rash at all?
Avatar f tn I developed a stomach rash in February of 2007 shortly after a viral infection. It consists of tiny red bumps that appear from my chest down to my waistline. At times the rash somewhat clears except for maybe 20-30 bumps. At other times I have 100 or more. They do itch, especially after bathing or swimming. If I scrub them off in the shower then they ooze and get quite sore. It is now July of 2008 and I have continuously had this rash.
Avatar m tn Also all these spots seem to be raised up slightly above the skin and the turn red around the edges when I get hot. I have been told heat rash before, but i thought it was localized to persistently sweaty areas and that it goes away anywhere from like 4-48 hours. Also with sun spots I always thought they went away after a good winter and you lose your tan and start again, besides sunspots definitely aren't supposed to itch, swell, and turn red.
Avatar n tn If this is not eczema it could be a heat rash. Nothing can be said with surety without a proper clinical examination. 'Miliaria (miliaria rubra, sweat rash or prickly heat) is a skin disease marked by small and itchy rashes. Miliaria is a common ailment in hot and humid conditions, such as in the tropics and during the summer season. ' 'The prevention and treatment of miliaria primarily consists of controlling heat and humidity so that sweating is not stimulated.

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.

Symptoms follow any stimulus to sweat such as exercise, heat from the sun, saunas, hot showers (reaction to water can also indicate water urticaria) or any stimulus that causes an increase in body temperature.
