Definition
It is anhidrotic disorders in
1. Miliaria crystallina
(sudamina), in which the
obstruction is within the
stratum corneum.
2. Miliaria rubra (prickly heat),
in which the block is a
deeper level within the
epidermis.
3. Miliaria pustulosa, some of
the eruption of miliaria rubra
that become pustular.
4. Miliaria profunda, in which
epidermal junction.
Epidemiology
ecrine pore.
Clinical Manifestation
DEFINITION
• Miliaria crystallina, is
characterized by minute
crystalline vesicles about 1
mm in diameter, on
uninflamed otherwise
normal-looking skin.
• Miliaria rubra, is the most

important clinical form & is
the only type in which the
symptom of pruritus is
experienced.
The lesions are small
erythematous macules with a
punctata vesicle.
DEFINITION
• Some of the eruptions of
pustular, resulting in
Miliaria pustulosa.
DEFINITION
• Miliaria profunda, the lesions
are whitish papules about 1 -
3 mm in diameter; they are
most prominent on the trunk
but may be seen on parts of
the extremities as well.
Diagnosis

miliaria.
Differential Diagnosis
• A primary irritancy
reaction.
• Erythema neonatorum.
• Folliculitis.
Treatment
sweating ceases.
• The keratinous plugs
weeks.
• An air conditioner in the
sleeping area, generally
permitting at least 8 hours of
every day in a non sweating
state, is prophylactic,
apparently preventing the
early changes leading to
miliaria.
• Topical antibiotics also seem
to prevent miliaria
seem to be remarkably
effective clinically.
• Topical & systemic
corticosteroids have no
merit, in suggested use to
oral ascorbic acid in high
doses to prevent or
minimize miliaria.
Prognosis
spontaneously unless a
environment is provided.
• In a hot environment with
continued extended periods of
sweating, the miliaria will
become increasingly extensive,
eventually involving enough
glands to compromise the
temperatur - regulating
mechanism & lead to a heat
stress syndrome.
• In long-standing miliaria rubra,
the eventual development of
miliaria profunda is inevitable

picture of tropical anhidrotic
asthenia.
