Prickly heat is a common rash caused by trapped sweat under the skin, typically occurring in areas exposed to heat and humidity. It causes tiny red bumps and an itchy, stinging sensation. Prickly heat is often triggered by prolonged exposure to warm temperatures and humidity. Simple treatments like calamine lotion, cool baths, and loose, breathable clothing can help relieve symptoms, which usually clear up on their own within a few days. Children are more susceptible due to less developed sweat glands. Preventing sweat from becoming trapped by avoiding heavy creams and washing sweat away can help reduce the risk of prickly heat. A doctor visit may be needed if the rash persists or becomes infected.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Miliaria rubra, commonly called prickly heat or heat rash, is a rash that
causes the skin to turn red, along with a warm, stinging, or prickly
sensation. The feeling is usually accompanied by small red dots in the
affected area. The rash may also have small, raised bumps and blisters.
Prickly heat is often caused by exposure to warm temperatures and will
normally clear up on its own after a few days. There are a few simple
treatments to help reduce symptoms, but a visit to the doctor may be
necessary in some situations.
The face, neck, shoulders, and chest are the most common places for
prickly heat to occur, although it may show up anywhere. It can affect
anyone, but children are more likely to have it than adults.
2. 1 Symptoms
Prickly heat commonly occurs in the neck, chest, shoulders, and face.
Prickly heat is usually easy to identify due to its straightforward symptoms.
Tiny red bumps and itching on an area of skin that has been exposed to
heat and sweat for a long time are common signs of prickly heat.
Sometimes the red bumps can develop into a series of tiny blisters. The
bumps or blisters may swell, become irritated or itchy, and redden as the
rash progresses.
Prickly heat may spread on the body, but it is not infectious. Under normal
conditions, there is no way to pass the rash on to other people.
2 Causes and triggers
Prickly heat is caused by trapped sweat. When the body is hot, it activates
the sweat glands to create sweat on the skin. The sweat then cools the skin
as it evaporates.
When the body is kept in this warm state, the constant sweat production
can overload the sweat glands. This can cause the sweat ducts to become
clogged, trapping sweat in the deep layers of the skin. This trapped sweat
irritates the skin, which responds by producing a rash.
3. The most common trigger for prickly heat is exposure to heat for a long
time. This may be especially true in very humid areas where the sweat has
a harder time evaporating off the skin.
Prickly heat is common in people from cooler climates who travel to warmer
climates. But it may also happen to a person in their usual climate when
they experience more heat and sweat than normal.
Certain medications can also trigger prickly heat. Any drugs that raise the
body temperature or alter the function of the sweat glands can increase the
risk of prickly heat.
Some medications for Parkinson's disease block the sweat, and
tranquilizers and diuretics can change the fluid balance in the body, which
can trigger symptoms of prickly heat as well.
A study in JAMA Dermatology noted that prickly heat developed where the
bacteria Staphylococcus were found. These bacteria are normal, but the
biofilm they produce can block sweat ducts and contribute to skin
conditions. This would suggest that people with Staphylococcuson their
skin may be more prone to prickly heat than others.
What is heat exhaustion?
Heat exhaustion occurs when the body becomes dehydrated and is unable to
regulate its internal body temperature. Learn more about treatment and prevention.

4. 3 Treatment
Cooling off to avoid additional sweat is recommended to treat prickly heat.
Prickly heat will usually go away on its own, but it may have bothersome
symptoms. Many people can benefit from using home remedies. Products
available over the counter or online, such as calamine lotion or topical
steroid creams, can help treat the symptoms of redness, irritation, and
swelling.
Treating prickly heat also involves cooling off quickly to avoid additional
sweat. Sitting in front of a fan or in an air-conditioned room can help. Cold
showers or baths can reduce body temperature and help prickly heat clear
up faster.
Camphor and menthol may also have a cooling effect on the skin and help
reduce the itchiness. In some cases, antihistamine medications can help
reduce itching.
People who are prone to prickly heat may find relief from regularly washing
the body with mild soap after sweating. This can reduce the amount of
sweat and the number of bacteria on the skin.
5. 4 In children and babies
Prickly heat can occur in people of all ages, is more common in children
and infants. The developing sweat glands in a small child are less resilient
and may be more likely to become clogged. Also, a child's body is not used
to adjusting to rapidly changing temperatures.
Children and infants are likely to experience prickly heat on their groin,
neck, and face. The rash may be irritating and uncomfortable, but it will
usually go away on its own. A cool bath can provide a child or baby with
some relief from symptoms.
Parents and caregivers should avoid using oil-based skin products on
children and infants to reduce the risk of clogging their sweat glands.
5 Prevention
Skin products may clog the pores and lead to prickly heat.
Image credit: Sentient Planet, 2011
Preventing sweat from becoming trapped in the skin is an important step to
avoid a rash. This may be as simple as not using certain skin products.
6. Skin products that contain heavy oils or petroleum jelly may clog the pores
and sweat glands, which could contribute to prickly heat.
Loose fitting clothing made of natural fibers, such as linen, cotton, and
hemp, may reduce the amount of sweat that gets trapped on the skin.
Removing sweaty clothes after a long day of warm weather can prevent the
sweat from getting trapped in the skin. Taking a shower to wash off the
sweat and changing into clean clothes can prevent many cases of heat
rash.
Avoiding a long time in hot and humid environments may help prevent
symptoms, as well as using fans and air conditioners when possible.
Regular cool showers or baths can reduce the body's temperature and
prevent excessive sweating.
Prickly heat powder can reduce symptoms. It is available from
drugstores or to purchase online.
6 When to see a doctor
Prickly heat is a common condition that will usually resolve without medical
treatment. Taking steps to prevent heat rash is the best way to avoid this
annoyance.
If prickly heat starts to show, it may help to take a few quick steps to lower
the body's temperature and prevent additional sweating. Watching for any
additional signs of heat stroke or exhaustion can help prevent a more
serious issue.
If the symptoms of prickly heat persist or the rash seems to become
infected, a person should seek medical attention. They may be referred to
a dermatologist if there are signs of an underlying condition.
