Can prickly heat be prevented?

Prickly heat can be prevented by avoiding environments and activities that produce heavy sweating. Using sunscreens or moisturizers that are labelled as 'water-based' or 'non-comedogenic' (not pore-blocking) can prevent sweat glands from becoming blocked. Wearing loose clothing made from a natural fiber, such as cotton, is usually also recommended.
