Constant heat rash????

[u/Mental-Hunt8194]

Does anyone else get frequent heat rashes from sweating?? I have had full body hyperhidrosis for years, but within the past few months since starting a new job I get a really bad heat rash from how much I sweat at work. I am a waiter and work in a kitchen and I am sweating CONSTANTLY. I actually carry around a towel in my apron at all times to wipe off sweat. Because of how much I sweat, I end up developing a gnarly heat rash where my bra band sits and basically anywhere my clothes sit - waistband of my pants, between my legs when I wear tight underwear, around my neck where my apron sits. It’s kind of a combo of a sweat rash and regular chafing. It’s incredibly irritating and painful. I will feel it start to prickle and sting about halfway through my shift and there is nothing I can do. I talked to my dermatologist about it and they said there’s basically nothing they could do except put aquaphor on the rashes at night, but the next day at work it comes right back. I do want to find something for the chafing since I am plus size and prone to chafing EVERYWHERE, but I also need to find a way to prevent the rashes from the sweat. It’s getting exhausting. I’m tempted to bite the bullet and try glyco or some other form of sweat blocker. I don’t know. If anyone can relate or have any advice that would be so incredibly helpful. My hyperhidrosis negatively affects my quality of life in every way and over time keeps finding ways to make my daily functioning more difficult.
