The winter season is associated with a number of health and psychological illnesses, including colds, weak immunity, allergies of all kinds, and depression. However, the most common illness is heat rash, which is a skin health disease that it has several causes.
The “medical” website has confirmed that heat rash illness can get infected anytime as long as the causes are present, but it strikes us in the winter season especially for certain reasons, which are:
– Weather changes and droughts
Cold and lack of sweating
Wear clothing that rubs against the skin
Wear warm clothes that cause body heat
The severity of heat rash symptoms varies from one patient to another, depending on a number of factors, including age, skin sensitivity, and weight. Specifically: skin becomes red or pink, itching, burning sensation in the skin, and slight swelling.
These symptoms appear in skin folds and moist places, such as the neck and armpits, and also appear in points of friction such as the knees and elbows, as well as appearing in the back and abdomen.
As for the most important treatments for heat rash, they are anti-inflammatory creams, which the doctor prescribes depending on the case. In severe cases, the doctor prescribes pain relievers.
