I have a terrible heat rash all over my arms, hands, and the tops of my feet from going to Bonnaroo. Does anyone else have this problem? My skin is way too sensitive!
my wife has it. did yours also swell up? we are trying to figure out if its a rash or something else? hers is on her legs and its red and swollen and she said it hurts.

i didn't get a heat rash, but i did get poison ivy all over my hands. i would have had it all over my legs, too if i hadn't washed my legs after i trying to walk through the woods. good luck w/ the heat rash!! try looking it up on webmd...it usually helps me!

All over my legs... I thought it was sunburn at first, but it didn't itch or burn... just really nasty looking. It is actually from the combination of dust, heat, and sweat/sunblock/bugspray... legs like to breathe.
As your attorney I advise you to drive at top speed and it'll be a Goddamn miracle if we get there before you turn into some kind of wild animal. Are you ready for that? Checking into a Las Vegas hotel under a phony name with the intent to commit capital fraud with a head full of acid? I certainly hope so...
I started with itchy ankles Saturday afternoon and my first thought was "chiggers omgwtfamigonnadoaaaarrrrrgggghhh!" or something like that.
Thank god it was only a heat rash! A bad one at that but I'll take heat rash over chiggers any day of the week. By Sunday avo my ankles and calves were covered in an angry red rash that burned not so much as itched. I have a really good moisturizer that you can buy at Wal-Mart, Eucerin I think, it's in a white tube. I put plenty of that on the affected areas then put some Cortisaid creme on, again you can buy this at Wal-Mart. THEN I slathered the area in camomile lotion. Today (Tuesday) the rash is clearing up nicely. Most unpleasant though, my skin felt tight and my right ankle turned into a cankle it had swollen up so bad.
I have very sensitive skin though and with the extreme heat this weekend and dust, I'm not surprised it flared up. I got lucky though, I found some solutions.
my roommate looks like she has diabetes... her legs are freaking huge and bright red from what i guess is sun poisoning
thats what my wife's looks like. she went to the dr. today because we didn't knwo what it was. he said all the dust caused an infection in her thriat which also caused the stuff on her leg. i have the stuff in my throat and chest, but i don't have the rash.
