I have tried to eliminate various foods but haven’t found out what causes it. Could it be Rosacea? I am 50 and am taking HRT. Could Green Tea have benefits?

I have rosacea and I am on chinese herbs for it…but since I notice my hair is falling out. Anyone know if chinese herbs cause the hair to fall out?

I dont properly understand the causes of Rosacea…. Going red from Social Embarrassment all the time, will this lead to permanant Rosacea?

I have rosacea and i am on meds…but i still have some redness and i am looking for something that might reduce it more..any suggestions?

I’ve known people with rosacea and seen pictures on the internet and what I have doesn’t match up. Eight months ago my skin started itching with what I thought was hives. Couldn’t really see them on the surface but I could feel them under my skin. I was very stressed out at work at the time. They didn’t go away though. Instead the surface of my skin started breaking out in sores like small boils with a blister like head. If you washed your face with a cloth it would cause them to bleed. If you squeezed them it was just clear liquid and it would burn for a while afterwards. Some days my whole face just burned. The only time my face has been completely clear was when I was on amoxicillin for a nasal infection but then the sores came right back. I’ve been given bactrim and some other mild antibiotic as well as a sulfer lotion and yeast cream and nothing has worked. I think there is some kind of an infection going on that hasn’t been addressed. Anybody out there have any ideas?

I would think it would only make it worse cause of the burning. Please explain if someone can. Thank you! =)

I’m scared cus i think i have irrititant contact dermatitis due to face cosmetics (face irritation), because i only get red after applying cosmetics and the redness goes away when i dont put anything. But whenever i look at ways to treat and heal face rashes i get links to Rosacea and stuff, and that word "rosacea" scares the jeebers out of mee, im 19 years old (male) and i get red after using acne products and/or face washes for my oily skin, could this mean i have rosacea i never recall getting red before cosmetics and my pimples are acne cus they’re "poppable" when i get facials. The redness is also aliviated by antihistamines, would could that be the case for rosacea individuals as well?? I’m scard i might have rosaceaaaa wahh

I see advertisements for all kinds of LED and other "use at home machines" that are supposed to help with reducing facial redness caused by rosacea.
Is there an affordable (under 0) machine for at home use that is effective?
IPL treatments are expensive and I need a series of 4-6 with a follow up of 2 more treatments each year.
Any health care professionals with any advice?

Does mineral powder cover up redness caused by rosacea? I’m thinking about buying Maybelline mineral powder stuff but I want to know if it will work. If anyone has rosacea, what does your makeup routine consist of?

Had Rosacea since senior high. Ever since I’ve been seeing derm with some success but I always end up coming back, either the product stopped being effective, or product had recieved a ban from the FDA. Also did light therapy session with little improvement.

I’ve used atleast 6 different topical cream just for rosacea, all if not most contain some sort of steroid and other chemicals I am afraid to have on my skin in the long term.

My rosacea can get ugly, with not just flushing but also bumps and blemishes. The most difficult part to treat is the ones located under my lower eyelid because using certain topical creams can thin the skin, you know what that means, ladies.

September 2008 is when I took a risk. I switched all my skin-care products to all-natural including shaving. Either it was going to get better or worse. It did get better, in 10 minutes saw noticeable result on the mirror! I felt the debris from the roscea just slide away, I can feel it on the tip of my fingers. This natural regimen caught the rosacea at its very early stage before it became full-blown, overnight. Obviously, I am also aware about other conditions that may play a role in causing rosacea to appear.

But fast forward to today, combination of getting fever, exposure to wind all day, physical stress made me breakout into a more widesprea area under the lower eye. It seems uncontrollable with the stuff I’ve been using for more than 6 months. It’s as if my rosacea adapted to this new forumala, like a virus mutating into someting else that resist current treatments. I dont know this is happening.

I just need to know if someone out there has had any success formulating their own regimen using natural products. I have very sensitive skin and also prone to acne and other skin-related issues like eczema and seborrea.

The products that I used for my face: Dessert Essence: Jojoba Oil, Burt’s Bees: Tomato Soap, Dessert Essence: Tea Tree oil.

For my hair, I use various Burt’s Bees hair products, they are 98-100% natural and provided some relief with seborea on the scalp. I could not risk using chemicals that tend to flow over my face as I shower.

Again if you found something that works for you that is all-natural skin-care products or have tips on how to deal with rosacea that not commonly found over the Internet, kindly share them.

i worked in a doggie daycare facility for 2 years.several of the dogs had demodex mites (mange) and i am wondering if somehow i got mites from working at this facility and this is the cause of my rosacea, at my next derm appt i will mention this.

Hi, I’m a guy so I don’t know a lot about this but I have rosacea which causes me to have red flushes on my cheeks and ears. I have heard that you can use camo makeup to cover this up. I don’t want to look like I’m wearing makeup but I want something strong enough that the flushing won’t show through. What kind of thing would be good? Thanks

Rosacea question Hey everyone! I’m 14 years old turning 15 in about a month…I’m starting to get facial hair I also suffer from a mild form of rosacea I was wondering that if I start shaving the hair will grow faster and the rosacea will go away because I heard rosacea is caused by the skin being tormented by the facial hair being pushed underneath the skin that’s what causes the inflammation I guess? Thanks!

I am on topical rosacea creams (sulfacetamide) and I do the baby shampoo cleansing routine. It all helps the burning sensation and makes my eyes feel better. BUT! My eyes are so red and I have these horrible purplish-red circles under my eyes. I always look dead tired even when I am not. I can’t look at myself or pictures of myself without feeling horrible about my eyes. I used to like my eyes so much and now they look terrible. It is messing with my self esteem in a big way. Ideas?

Anyone cured their rosacea? What caused your rosacea and how do you treat it? Of those that suffer from rosacea do u have food allergies?

My face has been red for a long time from when i was 9 to 10 and i never really use cream so it could also be dry bad but i hate creams so i only put it on two or three times a month maybe less was wondering if i have rosacea cause some times it burns when it’s really dry..
Also i’m a guy i don’t really care for looks so i don’t care it just gets really pink
And also my family don’t have much money right now so i can’t go to a docter or something… i can only buy cream and thats it..
And i’m not sure cause my skin is dry just about all the time..
