Tips To Get Rid of Heat Rash

March 30, 2009

The initial days of summer, when the heat is less and the breeze is cool, one feels extremely good. The days of freezing cold are over and you are ready to show off the sexy curves and bulging biceps which were not visible under the sweaters. However, as the summer temperature rises, we start recalling winter, when there was no sweat and body odor.

Tips to Treat Heat Rashes

Things required
•    Lotion
•    Baking Soda – little
•    Dry Oatmeal – ½ cup
•    Mild Soap/ Cleanser – 1 tsp.
•    Cotton Clothing
•    Dry Cotton Towels – 2
•    Antihistamine

Method

•    Initially, get away from the area that is prone to heat and select shade/ fan/ air conditioner.

•    Focus the area that has been damaged by the rash to air, so that it dries correctly.

•    Now, with the help of a mild soap or cleanser, clean the area.

•    Wash the area correctly and take a cotton towel to pat dry. Be sure not to scrub it with the towel.

•    If you have been experiencing irritation in the area, softly use calamine lotion all over it.

•    Another choice to heal the itch is to take a baking soda bath. Fill water in your bath tub and mix 3 tbsp. of baking soda in it. Soak yourself for 15 to 20 minutes, wash and pat dry.

•    You can alternatively take an oatmeal bath to relieve irritation. Grind 1 cup of dry oatmeal in a mixer and put into bath water. Soak yourself for 15 to 20 minutes, wash and pat dry.

•    If your irritation has not gone away with the above treatments also, you can take an antihistamine also.

•    Be sure to wear loose cotton clothing.

•    Always apply mild detergents to rinse clothes. This is because the chemicals in hard ones can further irritate the rash.

•    Until the rash goes away entirely, try to stay away from heat as much as possible.

•    In case your rash does not go away even after the above treatment, it is better to consult a doctor.
