Understanding Heat Rash - Symptoms
What Are the Symptoms?
Small, itchy red bumps on the skin are the symptoms of heat rash. The rash may feel prickly, stinging, or burning.
Call Your Doctor If:
- Heat rash does not go away on its own within a few days.
- You develop an infection in an area where you recently had heat rash.
