How to Prevent Heat Rush
Heat rash occurs in humid and hot environments and results from our bodies producing too much sweat. When sweat gets trapped underneath the skin and blocks the sweat glands, a rash can form due to the blockage. Although heat rash is uncomfortable, it's also preventable. Here's how you can avoid heat rash this summer: (1) Reduce friction. Although it may be tempting to wear shorts and a tank top when it's hot, reducing skin-on-skin friction is one of the best ways to prevent heat rash. (2) Avoid intense exercise in hot or humid weather. Instead, consider exercising in an air-conditioned gym or scheduling your workout early in the morning or late in the evening. (3) Keep your skin clean and dry. Maintaining clean skin can help keep your pores and sweat glands functioning more effectively.
