Research Notes on How to Get Rid of Heat Rash
Most cases of mild heat rash will go away without treatment within two to three days. If the skin is kept cool enough to prevent sweating, mild heat rash tends to clear quickly. Calamine lotion may be helpful to soothe itching.1 Contact your doctor if heat rash persists for longer than three to four days, appears to be getting worse, or if symptoms such as fever, red streaks, swollen lymph nodes, pain, swelling, or increased redness develop.2
