My girl friend has terrible Rosacea?

On her face, it really upsets her and she's tried allot of things to help but nothing really works.





Has anyone ever had severe rosacea and helped cure it? I was also wondering if it is a reaction to something that aggravates it like an allergic reaction. I would appreciate anyone鈥檚 helpMy girl friend has terrible Rosacea?
Me too - she needs to avoid dairy, and use really plain creams (Simple range is good from Boots - UK) and make-up on her face. (better with no make-up but if she's embarrassed about it she'll want it covered up) and no smoking!





And don't use toner - ever!





x And also telling her she's beautiful helps loads and loads!My girl friend has terrible Rosacea?
Try to stay out of the sun, this can cause a flare up. If you can find a sunscreen that she can tolerate on her face, that would be even better. I have found that anything you can put on that creates a barrier between your face and the environment really works (i.e. makeup, sunscreen) to control the rosacea. If she has a flareup (especially if her face feels hot), she can try a diaper rash cream (not the ointment, which is more likely to irritate the skin) like A%26amp;D cream. Don't try any steroid creams, temporarily they will help, but eventually it will cause a rebound reaction (waaay worse to deal with!!!). I haven't had a real flareup for a long time...hope this helps!!!!





I have also heard that some people keep a food diary to try and id some possible causes (i.e. hot/spicy food, alcohol, etc.)
Sun, alcohol, caffeine are irritants, yes and can cause a flare up of rosacea.





She should see a dermatologist if it's bothering her that much. I don't think anything that's over the counter would help her if it's as terrible as you say it is.
There are many triggers that make rosacea condition becomes worse such as alcohol, hot drink, hot water. May be you should find more information regard this to relieve the condition.
