I had a scrub at the Acapulco Turkish bath and that sorted me out. Alternatively, try exfoliating the affected area as it tends to be caused by blocked pores.

Cut a tomato in half and rub the inside on the rash,dont know why it works but it does cool and soothe

I found Sudocrem brilliant, I used to get prickly heat all the time, I used this and it took care of it. I was told by the GP NOT to use sun oil as it blocks the pores and thus creates prickly heat. I don't use any oil now if needed I just use sun cream. I wish you well getting rid of it, its a bummer.

There is a talcum powder called UTalk, (from chemist) which a friend recommended and it did help my prickly heat round my neck and chest .

Used to be plagued by prickly heat. I take an allergy tablet once a day and use Piz Baun allergy sun lotion and although I still get a bit of the rash it isnt as itchy and has calmed it down.

My nephew just had it. We used two sulpidine pain killers a cold shower and after sun it would disappear for 4 hour then we went and stared again.

Lavender Oil mixed with a cold cream works wonders

I used to suffer with prickly heat and was advised to smear on natural yogurt and let it dry ... worked wonders though no one wanted to sit near me!
