    Hi Lara! Do you find it clears up in cooler environments like shopping centres etc where there is air conditioning? If so, it is heat rash. Fraser has it on his face, neck, chest and back. I asked the CHN if I should put some Sudocrem on it and she said to put nothing on it but water. She said they get heat rash because their sweat glands havent properly developed yet and it is compounded by hormones which are still developing too. She said by 6-8 weeks, it should disappear.
