  1. heat rash

    Heat rash, also known as prickly heat or miliaria, is a skin condition that occurs due to excessive sweating during hot or humid weather. It manifests as small red bumps or blisters on the skin, usually on areas covered by clothes. The condition is caused by blocked sweat ducts, which trap sweat under the skin, causing irritation and discomfort. Besides being itchy, it can also give a prickly sensation, hence the alternate name, prickly heat. It's most commonly seen in babies but can affect people of all ages.
