Hello, I am in my late 20s and have been getting heat rashes ever since I was 17. I was told a long time ago that it was caused by a virus, but I haven't been able to find any information on this type of rash.

The rash appears when I've spent a few hours in the sun. I don't get it when I've been exposed to other sources of heat. It will usually start on the underarms, beneath my chin, and on the tops of my feet, but will appear on other parts of the body the longer I've been exposed to the sun - even in areas that are not exposed.

It appears as small red dots that itch and sometimes burn. In extreme cases, a large area will be raised and red. It usually goes away within 3-4 days.

Any help would be extremely appreciated!

There are a number of different viral infections that may result in a rash depending on the situation. However, you may also be describing what is commonly referred to as prickly heat, a rash that typically comes about when the sweat glands are activated but become partially blocked due to dead skin cells or bacteria. The resulting rash is itchy and raised and can last for a very short period of time or for several days. If this is the case, cooling the skin with water or some fresh aloe, or R-Pur Aloe liquid, may help to reduce the symptoms. Using a natural exfoliant like E3 Liveโ€™s Light Polish may help to keep the affected areas clean and remove dead skin cells more effectively. Further, I would suggest using products, skin products, shampoos, detergents, and soaps that are made from natural ingredients that, for the majority of people, tend to cause fewer allergic reactions and to leave less synthetic residue on the skin to block sweat glands. To read more concerning synthetic ingredients and their possible toxicity, please visit http://www.ewg.org.

It is also possible that some of the toxins stored within your system are being excreted through the skin and causing a reaction. For most people, this can be addressed by starting with a colon cleanse, performing 2-3 back-to back liver and gallbladder flushes and then a parasite cleanse. The following links describe this process in greater detail: http://www.dreddyclinic.com/products/ghchealth/liver-and-gallbladder-flush.htm

In addition to cleansing, I would suggest supplementing with a natural, non-corn based Vitamin C; beet and Camu Camu are good sources. Further more a bioflavanoid supplement with high levels of quercetin, preferably quercetin chalcone if you can find it, along with a vegetable-based enzyme like Zymitol can help to control histamine levels, which should help to reduce the itching and swelling of a rash or allergy.

There are a number of viruses that may cause a rash as part of their pathology. Perhaps the most common ones are in the Herpes family. These cause well-known problems such as chickenpox, smallpox, cold sores, and shingles. Measles, of course, is another common rash-causing virus. Unfortunately, the cause of rashes in general, even if it is viral, is often difficult to diagnose in the absence of other symptoms or tests. These are considered to be non-specific, meaning only that a virus is suspected but that the type cannot be determined from the rash itself, which generally appears as blotchy red spots. Probably the best course of action is to have a physical examination; a physician trained in natural medicine may be able to gather some clues from the particular characteristics of and circumstances surrounding your rash for a more specific diagnosis.

viral rash is caused by a viral infection. The red, blotchy spots may look quite nasty and it cover the whole body. Chicken pox and measles are both viral rashes.

Nice post---++

You are dressing your 3-year-old when you notice a rough, pimply red rash on her back and chest. You also find it on her arms and legs. What could it be? Should you call the doctor?

You pick your 6-year-old up from school and notice his cheeks are bright red. He feels a little warm and then shows you a red lacy rash on his arms. You rush over to the doctor's office; afraid he might have some usual illness.

An hour after dinner you are giving your one-year-old a bath. You notice a red and white, raised welt on her tummy. You find more on her legs. Fifteen minutes later she is practically covered in welts. What could this be? Should you rush her to the ER?

i have no idea about it but want to take it.
