Heat rash and sunburn can look similar, but theyโre caused by very different things and need different care.
โ๏ธ Heat rash usually develops when sweat gets trapped under the skin, often appearing as small itchy bumps in hot or humid conditions.
โ๏ธ Sunburn is skin damage from UV exposure, leading to redness, pain, and in some cases blistering and repeated sunburns can increase your risk of long-term skin damage.
If symptoms are persistent, worsening, or youโre unsure what youโre dealing with, a professional skin assessment can help provide clarity and peace of mind.
At Maroubra Family Doctors, Dr. Ahmed AlSultan offers GP consultations with advanced experience in skin assessment and skin cancer detection.
