What Triggers Rosacea?

Thursday, September 10th, 2009 by admin

If you are a rosacea sufferer, you may be wondering what triggers rosacea. Well, the fact is that everyone has a different set of rosacea triggers that are unique to them. Of course, many of the symptoms are common between patients and are detailed in this short video:

Rosacea Symptoms: Summer Is A Time For Caution

Friday, June 5th, 2009 by admin

With summer almost upon us, most individuals are thinking about summer activities and fun in the sun.  But recent surveys by the National Rosacea Society indicate that many rosacea sufferers believe the summer season is one to be wary of.   With almost 85% of respondents stating that their rosacea symptoms are affected by the changing of the seasons, it is a time of caution and awareness for those diagnosed with rosacea.

Surprisingly, about 50% of those taking the survey thought that there symptoms were at their worst during the summer months.  An almost equal amount said that they make more lifestyle changes to control flare-ups in the summer than any other time of the year.

The problem being that sun exposure and summer heat are two of the most common rosacea triggers.  So, rosacea patients need to be aware of this high risk time of the year and avoid too much outdoor time and should use sunscreen products.  But don’t be fooled by a cloudy summer day - the heat and humidity can still lead to exacerbations in this skin condition.

What seemed to be a common factor in this survey was that many individuals were adversely affected by cold weather as well.  The study showed that 36% of respondents and 46% of those living in the northern states found their rosacea symptoms were at their worst during the winter months.  The wind and biting cold can be especially hard on already sensitive skin.

It would appear that the two most extreme seasons wreak the most havoc on many individual’s rosacea symptoms.  The good news was that almost 87% claimed that a combination of skin treatments and lifestyle changes helped reduce flare-ups and their overall symptoms.
