The past summer i got like a heat rash and it got really bad. So I decided to go to the doctor.and he recommend to use hydrocortisone creame on it.you can get it from any drugstore or even like a dollar store.it worked the best for me. you just put it on at least twice a day and it should go away in no time.mine took about 2 weeks but that’s because it was pretty bad.so hope this helped.

for the first time, I got a heat rash on the back of my neck where my ponytail hangs. We have had a run of 90+ days so i am tryingg to tuck my hair into a hat - we’ll see what happens without creams or powders.

I get a really bad heat rash every summer on my legs, especially my thighs and leg pits, where I sweat. I haven’t really found any cure for it, after reading this I think I will try ice packs when my skin gets itchy….baby powder doesn’t sound like it will stop the itchyness, but anyway, I hope ice works this year.

I get a red sweating rash sometimes when I walk my dog lunch time, but not everytime. I was thinking that when I’m in a rush to get back to work I get anxious and this makes me have more sweat. I’m not sure what does heat rash look like but I think that’s what it is because it always happen from humid hot days.

To get rid of heat rash gold bond medicated powder worked for me but it was a mild case of prickly heat. I avoid beach during peak hours.

I think what they call “sweat rash” is the same as heat rash. Is that true? The heat rash pictures I’ve seen look similar to my husband’s but he also has both pink bumps and red ones. I think prickly heat rash can look different on a guy than a girl.

Is the best way to get rid of heat rash to avoid the sun? It is very hot where I live in Texas and my rash is always worse during the summer. I think it is prickly heat.

Is toddler heat rash the same as heat rash in adults? Also I think it can be related to miliaria right? I think my son retains sweat too much.

When my baby was little she kept getting “prickly heat” and I think it was because I was putting too many blankets on her because I was so afraid of her getting cold. I noticed she had a red heat rash near her neck and that’s where I had snuggled her up in the blankie.
