The sun’s rays can prove to be harmful for the body if precautions are not taken. Heat rash is one such skin condition that calls for medical intervention. Heat rash mostly occurs in hot weather conditions and is common in people who sweat profusely. Heat rash also called prickly heat or miliaria refers to tiny eruptions on the skin because of blocked ducts of sweat glands. Due to this, the sweat cannot evaporate and is trapped under the skin. The result is erupions on the skin with severe pricking and itching. The eruptions are red papular or fluid-filled vesicular in nature. In some persons, pus may appear in eruption (pustules). The eruption of heat rash is mainly on the neck, chest, back and abdomen. In adults heat rash occurs in skin folds. In infants, heat rash is very common and may appear even when the temperature is not high mainly due to the child being over-dressed. When the disease is mild and the eruption does not itch, it is referred in medical terms as miliaria crystallina (sudamina). When the eruptions have a marked prickling, itching and burning sensation, it is termed miliaria rubra. The itching and prickling increase as any work is done that results in the sweating process. The severest form that affects the deepest skin layers is called miliaria profunda.
Natural homeopathic medicines are of great help in the treatment of heat rash. Homeopathic medicines soothe the skin rash and the feeling of itching, burning and pricking are also brought down by these medicines which are completely free from any side effects. Afterwards, homeopathic medicines work to decrease the tendency to have heat rash each time hot weather appears. Homeopathic medicines boost the body’s self-healing powers to fight this complaint naturally.
Homeopathy provides wonderful treatment in heat rash cases by working very gently and safely to treat heat rash. The common practice of applying prickly heat powder gives a very temporary relief. But homeopathic medicines not only provide relief from heat rash, but also ensure that the root cause is taken care of and heat rash is treated completely.
Homeopathic medicines for heat rash are given orally that work on the internal body and act deeply rather than superficial action on the skin. This resolves the condition entirely rather than providing short-term relief. Homeopathy never supresses skin complaints that prevents future outbreaks of skin issues to a great extent.
Homeopathic medicines for heat rash are prescribed according to the characteristic symptoms of the person. The symptoms that are peculiar and unique to the person are taken into account followed by its case analysis. This symptomatic medication selected individually for every case brings about the best results.
Homeopathic treatment for heat rash is very safe for persons of all age groups. Homeopathic remedies for heat rash are made of natural substances. These are devoid of any chemicals or toxins so they never cause any harmful effects.
