Rosacea FlushingRosacea-Ltd Examines Flushing Induced by Showers or BathingWho doesn't enjoy a hot shower or bath? The answer may be - your skin! Rosacea flushing can be induced by a hot shower or bath. Obviously the skin is redder by the stimulation of hot showers/baths which is vascular dilation. Overall, it is better to shower in tepid water in the range of 85 to 95 degrees to cool the body and prevent vascular dilation. You may choose to shower with warmer water to open the pores up to clear them or for relaxing, however, remember to begin to lower the temperature to a much lower degree for cooling off to prevent the skin from turning red or to reduce the redness from the prior higher temperature. The cooler water temperature produces vascular constriction. Change wash-cloths and body towels after each use. They are a great place for adult acne-causing bacteria to grow and be reapplied to the skin later. Wash facial wash cloths, pillow covers, and personal undergarments daily with Clorox to decrease rosacea-related bacterial growth. Change clothes and sheets frequently. Often those who have rosacea may also have other skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema or dermatitis. Any of these skin conditions can be further aggravated by a hot shower or bath. Hot water strips the skin of its natural protective oils causing irritation, redness and itching. Each of the following items below is part of a complex interaction of several systems.
