Re: Could this be rosacea?

I read up on the symptoms and don't think that's it. The only symptom I seem to have it that I blush really easily. I am super shy so I think thats the reason, I am also very pale complexion. The general spots for rosacea are the forehead, chin, cheeks and nose. I don't have any burning or redness in these areas. Actually I don't really have any redness at all. I will occasionally get a little redness under the right corner of my mouth. The rosacea looks like a really red rash often with red bumps...that I don't have. I guess this could possibly be the beginning stages so I will keep this in mind and see if any new symptoms develop. Thanks again.

You may not have rosacea, but it sound like you fit the profile -- pale complexion, blush easily.

I, too, am light skin, blush easily, and don't have rosacea's extreme tag areas of red rash or red bumps. Rarely, I would get a single pimple that would not develop but would seem forever disappearing; occasionally a small whitehead would appear on the right side at my nasolabial fold. I have noticed a flareup when I get overheated (humid, hot weather in the South so A/C a necsssity) or emotionally stressed (more so when my dad was terminally ill). Probiotics has benefited me. A dab of oil of oregano at the first sign of a pimple or whitehead forming stops it. Since I began OP, my skin looks and feels better than it has in years.
