Default prickly heat

Hi

Been in Oz 4 months now. In the last month been bothered with prickly heat on and off. Never had it before. Anyone else having same problem? Mainly on my neck, but also creases of my arms. Have tried aloe vera etc and does help, but a couple of days later back again. It's a pain in the backside!!!!!!

Thanks

Claire

Suggest you have a chat with your local pharmacist (chemist). They should be able to point you in the right direction (free advice). Otherwise you might need to see a GP.

Hope you get it sorted.

There are some great homeopathic remedies for prickly heat such as Urtica Urens made from stinging nettles, sticking nettles cause a very similar rash so will cure you of the same rash. Let like cure like. Give it a go, you will find that it can sort out the problem permantely unlike using a cream from a chemist which will only suppress it.

good luck

We used Pinetarsol solution on the SIL's two yr old twins. They suffered really badly and screamed for hours more than they normally do. After bathing them in a solution 15-30 mils in a tepid bath for a few mins each night it cleared up nicely and normal screaming tantrums were able to resume

Hey Swaffy have you got any homeopathic cures for piles? I'm thinking like for like
