What Should Be Done For Skin Pain Upon Sweating?

I have always been able to work and play all day in the sun. Recently I have been getting needling pains across my skin when I start to perspire. I can’t be in the heat for more than a few minutes. What should I try? Drinking water doesn’t seem to help.

Hello,

It could be due to prickly heat.

You can use antiperspirant powders like “mucilage” for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
