As the heatwave continues to sweep England and Wales, we asked dermatologist Dr Adeline Kikam about how extreme heat can impact our skin. She says several skin conditions can develop, or worsen, during persistently high temperatures. Some of those conditions are:, tiny bumps or blisters in the skin, happen when there is an obstruction in the sweat ducts and inflammation.
