My brother-in-law has a red, small bumpy rash over his entire body. It's the same consitancy all over the body. Could it be heat rash? We have looked at pic's on the Internet and can't seem to find pic that fits his description.

He needs to go to the doctor if it doesn't disappear in a couple days. Sometimes a rash is a sign of illness.
On the other hand, it might be heat rash. He needs to take oatmeal baths and blot calamine lotion on the rash.
Seriously though it could be an indicator.

the skin is the largest organ on or in our body. It is like 5 times bigger than the next one. And because it protects the rest of the body it is subjected to a lot of stuff. It could be a fungus, a virus, a reactin, or a yeast infection. Have a lot at the first site. It has a lot of skin reactions on it. The second site might be helpful too.

If it's little tiny bumps, it could be heat rash. I get that once in a while. If it's larger bumps it could be hives. You should go to the doctor either way rashes aren't good. It could be something else more serious causing it.
