My cheeks and nose are slightly red and... burning very slightly? For the past y!
Question: My cheeks and nose are slightly red and!.!.!. burning very slightly!? For the past year or two!?
I'm 23, thin, and have oily skin!. I had acne as a teenager but nothing too bad!. I still have acne occasionally!. I haven't been to a dermatologist becuase the burning and redness are so slight that it's very easy to put off going!. Also no one has ever brought it up because I tend to wear makeup on my red spots!. My husband did notice though yesterday (when it was hot out and I was redder than usual lol) so that's why I'm here!. I don't drink much alcohol (nothing at all now actually, I'm pregnant with baby #1)!. I'm thinking!.!.!. could it be an allergy to dairy!? Do you think I should cut out dairy for a while or is there anything else it could be an allergy to!?
Maybe it's not an allergy now that I think of it!.!.!. I've always lived at just about sea level (humid plus more oxygen) and when I spent a year in Colorado I was living at about 5,000 feet above sea level (and it is DRY out there, super super super DRY) and that's when I noticed my face went red, it really was all of a sudden too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
