Re: Sweat Rash
If you search 'prickly heat' on this board you'll find the topic comes up fairly regularly.
As it tends to be a result of blocked pores, gentle exfoliation when bathing can help, using a plastic scrunchie or exfoliating skin wash - Johnson's do a very nice one for using on the face but can be used on other parts of the body.
If you can bear it, I thoroughly recommend getting a scrub treatment at a Turkish bath, such as the one at Acapulco hotel. It got rid of my prickly heat permanently.

Re: Sweat Rash
Agree with come_on_aylin. Its caused by sweat blocking pores so exfoliation is usually the answer. Not blocking the pores with even more cream.

I never sweat, I perspire.

On the lighter side, in my Army days it used to be said that soldiers' wives 'sweat', sergeants wives 'perspire' and officers' wives 'glow'.

Re: Sweat Rash
Any cavalryman will tell you horses sweat, men perspire, ladies glow.
I've often said that I sweat like a pig but my neighbour who farms them tells me that they have few sweat glands, preferring a wallow in cooling mud. Sounds good to me

Brian. (cavalry long, long ago)

Re: Sweat Rash
Depends where it is? If it is in an embarrassing position where men suffer, Ketoral cream. Sweat can cause fungal problems and Ketoral is the answer
