This condition is also called Miliaria or prickly heat or sweat rash. It is a frequently seen skin condition triggered by blocked sweat glands and ducts. The blockage leads to backflow of sweat into the dermis or epidermis, resulting in a rash comprised of sweat-filled boils under the skin. It is frequently seen in hot, humid, or tropical climates. Medication is available to control it. Consult a Dermatologist fort he same.
