After any physical workout, I seem to get red spots on my body, they are a bit itchy. Takes aobut 10m to leave

Question

Ive been testing my diet and tempature but even if its freezing cold out I still get them. They dont really bother me besides I play alot of sports and work out. I just tell my friends its a heat rash, but I want to find a way to fix this.

Answer 1

Try this out: take a Benadryl before working out.

I have a condition called cholinergic urticaria. ('heat hives,' basically.) I have a mild form, but some people have it worse. Take an antihistamine, like Benadryl, or Claritin, or anything else that you'd take for sneezing (not for being stuffy) before exercising and see if it helps. It's the only thing that helps me, and it's distinct from a normal 'heat rash' because it happens on my arms and not around waistbands or anything.

Answer 2

sounds like hives. I think they might be happening because exercise causes a temporary dip in our immune system and hives are an immune reaction. You might try taking some benedryl before a workout to see if that works, if so you'll know it has to do with allergies. If it doesn't work then perhaps it is a heat rash after all.

Answer 3

Sounds like heat actvated hives.(lerge red spots that have rash like appearance)that occur when the body becomes over heated.

Answer 4

Talk to a dermatologist. It's obviously a rash. Most probably caused by sweat. It may be related to the pH level, or you might be developing an allergic reaction to your sweat. Either way, Your best resource is a dermatologist.

Answer 5

just go see a doctor I know this website is about helping people out but seriously just see a doctor because people can only guess without seeing the symptoms even doctors.
