10 Heat Rash Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #8: Fever
Because heat rash occurs due to an increase in temperature, there is a good chance that the body’s systems may suffer disruptions. An infection may also develop easily from environmental pathogens. This can cause the body’s defense system to kick in ready for combat, using fever among other infection fighting tools.
Fever as a heat rash symptom occurs when the condition remains for an extended length of time. For this reason, it may be necessary to seek medical attention to rule out any infection or complications. This is even more critical for babies and young children. Keep monitoring the body temperature and rush to a doctor if the temperature rises above 102oF for 24 hrs or more.
