While summer is a particularly pleasant time of year for many, it can turn into a nightmare for those who suffer from prickly heat, also called sweat rash or heat rash. In medical terms, this condition is known as miliaria. It is a common skin problem experienced by adults, children and even infants. It mostly happens to people who live in hot, humid climates.

Other possible causes of excess gas include excessive drinking, not chewing your food thoroughly, eating spicy and gas-forming foods, too much stress, some kind of bacterial infection, digestive disorders, swallowing air, food intolerances, artificial additives and c...
