Suggest Remedy For Heat Rash In Groin Area
Question: I have a bad case of heat rash at the crease between the top of my body and my leg. I have medication but it doesn't work.
Brief Answer:
Calamine lotion and antihistaminics
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
In cases of heat rash I recommend my patients to apply soothing cream like calamine lotion on the affected area twice daily along with antihistaminic like tablet Loratidine 10 mg once or twice daily depending on the intensity of irritation and itching.
This normally resolves the heat rash in 7- 10 days.
I hope to have answered your query and would be happy to clarify any further doubts.
