[…] Specific modalities for the treatment of miliaria are unique depending on the type. Miliaria crystallina usually does not require treatment, as it is self-limiting and typically resolves within 24 hours. Miliaria rubra is managed by reducing inflammation; thus, mild-to-mid-potency corticosteroids, such as 0.1% triamcinolone cream, may be applied to the affected areas for 1 to 2 weeks.
