Why is it that when i sweat ma arms itch and sometimes have some sort of small swellings but wit time it goes again, pls help...

Sweat bumps: Sweat is produced by glands likely they get clogged/ over produce when you sweat alot and so they swell and itch( a sign of pain and histamine release),once you decrease the sweat they unclog and so the symptoms disappear. Keep your self hydrated and wash off with water when sweating alot

Hi, I have this heat rash or sweat rash on my leg, I cannot get it away and have tried everything. Originally thought is was from excercise and sweat, but I get it on my arm or legs. Forms big red rash with thick erdge. Itches when it gets warm.
Approximatey 3 weeks ago I was stung on the inside of my elbow (in the bend) by what appeared to be a sweat bee. I immediately applied alcohol to the sting. It has itched in that area every day since the sting and I apply alcohol each time it itches. Yesterday a cluster of 12-15 small bumps appeared in the area of the sting. I am looking for advice on how to treat the area as it itches also. Thank you. Rash possibly related to sweat bee sting?
When walking on rocks when it is cold outside my feet begin itching and hard to get them to stop. This seems to also trigger the palms of my hands and my arms. This goes on for days. What might be causing it? No swelling just insatiable itching.
