Lifestyle and home remedies
By Mayo Clinic staff- In hot weather, dress in loose, lightweight clothing that wicks moisture away from your skin.
- Spend as much time as possible in air-conditioned buildings.
- After bathing, let your skin air-dry, instead of toweling off.
- Use calamine lotion or cool compresses to calm itchy, irritated skin.
- Avoid using creams and ointments, which can block pores further.
