Hello
I'm a 13 year old male, and have really red cheeks. Nowhere else on my on face is like this, but it's so embarrassing. Especially whenever I'm embarrassed, excited, or mad, I get SO red.
Does anyone else have this?? Can you cure it? |

I have always had this condition. Some skin types and ethnicity will have it more than others.
I now have rosacea but that is something a dermatologist would have to diagnose. I sometimes use a lotion that helps me keep the skin cool and calmer.
If you are using any acne creams or lotions, that can aggravate this condition, but again a dermatologist can help with that.
You can use cooling towels and cooler packs to help cool the skin back down after heating up but that I really all I know to do.
I know it is frustrating and hopefully you can find something that helps! |

Never heard of rosacea, but I'm not sure if it is because it doesn't really look like it when I was googling it. And my doctors never brought it up when I was getting checkups.
Do you know what causes it, because they've been red for a long time, and I haven't really changed anything in my life to get rosacea. |

| Mine was brought on by using retin A on my sensitive skin. |

| If mine is rosacea, I've probably gotten it when I was very young, since I have pictures of me when I was little and my cheeks were still quite red. |
