Natural Treatments For Rosacea

Protect Against The Weather

As mentioned, the wind is a known trigger for flare-ups of rosacea. Some individuals even say the sun triggers an itchy rash to appear on their skin. This is especially true when it is also hot and humid outside in addition to being sunny and windy. Thus, patients with rosacea must take extra precautions when they are going outside. One such precaution is always wearing sunscreen and reapplying it as needed. This is especially important when rosacea patients must be outside during the hours when the sun is the strongest. Of course, staying indoors is ideal. At the very least, individuals with rosacea should make it a point to remain indoors when it is humid outside. Additionally, staying hydrated and keeping their skin damp helps.

In the winter the air is often dry and can be very windy. This is a harsh way to have a flare-up of rosacea. When patients go outside in the winter, they must put on a scarf and hat to cover their face as much as possible. They must also wear gloves to protect their hands.
