Why do babies get heat rash in Summer and how to prevent it?
Heat rashes on an infant manifest as small red bumps or blisters on the skin, usually due to entrapped sweat. Sweat retention under the epidermis leads to vesicular eruptions, especially in humid conditions. Preventive strategies include breathable cotton clothing, cool baths, and adequate ventilation. Garima Dev Verman, Dietitian, advises avoiding occlusive creams to minimise follicular blockage.
