Occluded sweat ducts causing vesicles and papules is a characteristic of miliaria, also known as "heat rash". Milia are small, white, keratin-filled cysts and are not caused by occluded sweat ducts. Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating and does not cause vesicles and papules. Vitiligo is a skin condition where there is loss of melanin, resulting in white patches on the skin and is not associated with occluded sweat ducts.
