Causes of prickly heat

Prickly heat is usually caused by hot and humid weather, and medications can be used to relieve symptoms.

If the perspiration function is not perfect in infants and young children, or in adults who are obese and sweaty, or who are bedridden for a long time, the sweat pores will be blocked and prickly heat will appear due to the blockage of sweat. This usually occurs in hot and humid seasons. If the patient lacks vitamin A, the stratum corneum of the skin will thicken, which will also narrow or block the sweat pores. In hot summer, due to the lack of air circulation, sweat cannot evaporate, causing the pore tissue to penetrate and prickly heat will appear. You can use prickly heat water under the guidance of a doctor to relieve symptoms.

In daily life, you need to wear pure cotton clothes with good breathability, which can improve symptoms.
