heat rash?????
i know of a few things you can get from the sun.
sun burn.. skin cancer... the 2 obvious ones

but sometimes people that go outside without a shirt on and get direct sunlight hitting their skin (usually the back) their skin turns whiteish? kinda like a scar mark... but not really just circle or semi circle white spots that act like rashes and itch and burn..

it's some form of fungus created from staying in the sun to long... usually happens when you come back from a vacation from like a tropical place.. but since the weathers been hot when i was at stampede i noticed a few of the shirtless guys had it on their back and i'm sure they have no freaking clue what it was. if left for a prolonged time it will be alot harder to remove these spots. :D

and the anti fungus meds the doc will give you are really harsh on the body

thats saying your rashes/burning areas are turning white or ligther than your skin. should be fairly clear

I haven't been to Stampede shirtless, but I got it last night @ Stampede, its where your legs connect to your abdomen and its red and itchy (no its not an STI)

could be the sweat collecting on your belt line of your pants? or something? just wash it with soap hard and see what happens lol

sounds more like a yeast infection. You can get it pretty much anywhere on your body. Just from heat and sweat.

So....make sure you clean that area really good, go to the drug store and get some yeast infection cream. Yes it will be in the womens feminine section. But who the hell cares. Put it on it will help with the redness and itching. It will take a few days.

in the future make sure that area is dry in the heat...use powder it will totally help.

Just go to a medicentre and get the doc to give you a cortisone/anti-fungal cream and you'll be good to go. The longer you wait the longer it takes to heal but you'll all cleared up in a week with treatment. Costs about $16 for the cream.

Sounds like what my boss bad. I believe it was called jock itch.

jock itch is a yeast infection, it's the same fungal infection.

You can get it anywhere on your body.

Wash ... use soap rinse it well and make sure you dry off well ... consider using a blowdryer then go to put on some zinc oxide.

(zincofax can be found in any baby section)
