What Causes Heat Rashes On Arms And Torso Along With Constant Headaches?

I have had severe heat rash over my entire arms and torso & upper legs with red streaks from the affected area with this being the 3rd day. Headache is ongoing and had fever the first day. The severity of the rash not as prominent . I live in AZ and temps very hot but have been staying inside. I am 64 years old and have never had this severe a reaction. Should I see a doctor or wait longer for the rash and red blotchy skin to go away.
