Prickly heat, which is caused by obstruction within the exocrine sweat ducts, can be made to subside through nursing and adjunctive pharmacologic interventions. 1. Nursing care: to minimize sweating and obstruction of sweat ducts as a principle, try to keep the skin in a cool and dry environment, change breathable clothing, do not over-warm. Wear loose, soft clothing as much as possible. 2. Pharmacological intervention: Topical corticosteroid ointment (e.g. 2.5% hydrocortisone or 0.1% triamcinolone) can reduce itching and accelerate the inflammation to subside. It is recommended to go to the regular medical institutions, under the guidance of specialists to standardize the use of drugs.
