Miliaria is the medical name for little sweat bumps, right?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Is basically right.: Miliaria is a skin disease with small and itchy rashes. It is common in hot and humid conditions, like the tropics in summer. It occurs in people of all ages, but is especially common in children and infants because of their underdeveloped sweat glands.
