Summer Skin Rashes and how to deal with them
We all love to stay out in the warm and pleasant rays of the summer sun and in the midst of nature,
but this is not always wise.
Too much exposure to the sun may cause skin rashes.
Although many people believe that rashes are simply allergic reactions, this is simply not true.
The most common type of summer skin rash is the Sun Rash.
Small reddish blisters appear on those parts of the skin that have been exposed to the sun for too long.
This type of rash is mostly confined to people whose skins are very sensitive and cannot stand harsh sunlight for long.
The second most common type is Miliaria, or Prickly Heat.
This type of rash is caused by exposure to high heat and humidity
which obstruct the ducts of sweat glands located in the skin and triggers the eruption of small,
red papules, accompanied by a prickling sensation.
Rashes may also be caused by chemicals, such as the substances contained by cosmetics or drugs.
Photoallergic Dermatitis is a type of rash caused by the reaction of chemicals found in makeup, perfumes,
soaps or suntan lotions to prolonged sun exposure.
Drug-Induced Photosensitivity is the scientific term for rashes experienced by people who take blood pressure medicine,
certain antibiotics and anti-acne products,
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, birth control pills and antihistamines.
Some plants can cause rashes and other skin problems.
Most people have been stung by Stinging Nettles.
You may also have heard of the Poison Oak.
You would also do well to stay away from Poison Sumac,
Daffodils, Hyacinths, Primrose, Ivy, and Pencil Trees.
The best way to treat rashes is leave them alone.
Once you are no longer exposed to the sun or to the toxic substances of plants,
the rash will go away on its own.
Above all, avoid scratching.
Mild rashes go away in a couple of hours, but scratching is almost guaranteed to trigger an infection.
If the rash is accompanied by fever or by unbearable itching, pay a visit to your doctor at once.
