    As title states, I have red cheeks. Often looking like I'm consistently blushing. It's been like that for about 2 years. I don't do no drugs/alcohol and I have a strict diet as I'm a fitness junky. However I have very dry skin due playing outside. Anyone know how to help this? Could this be symptoms of Rosacea? Can anyone give me more info on that disease?

    Are you 100% positive that you're not embarrassed?

    well, maybe you stay a lot of time in the sun, and if you have white skin, then they could be red for all the sun you got.

    Rosacea is usually very splotchy and asymmetric.

    Try googling "keratosis pilaris rubra faceii". If that is your problem, there is unfortunately not a whole lot you can do about it, though it will fade as you age.

    I was gonna say. If you're a ginger, it might just come with the territory.

    There are some things you can do about it, there are some steroid creams that you can rub on your face every morning to stop it from flaring up.

    Go see a dermatologist they can sort you out.

    This. Don't rely on strangers on the internet to give you medical advice.

    white? :confused:

    Never mind.
    Are you sure about that? Are you sure ABrooks0 isn't "exaggerating" his rosy cheeks and should deserve a yellow card? :rolleyes:

    ;)

    I also have slap-face. It has gotten better with age.
