Spots on the face on t begins. Allergies and rashes on the face. Diseases causing this problem

Problems such as redness of the skin on the face, its peeling are very common, regardless of gender and age. These can be seasonal manifestations or serious illnesses. In any case, they should not be ignored, hoping that "it will pass by itself."

To effectively deal with such problems that cause any girl a lot of trouble, to organize treatment correctly, you need to understand the reasons that caused them.

And the reasons, as such, are divided into two subgroups: external and internal. Both those and others can appear due to the influence of a psychological or physiological factor.

Influence of external influences:

  • Implementation of improper facial skin care. Using hot water, soap with an antibacterial effect when washing your face, frequent unjustified use of care products (peeling, scrub) dry the skin and make it unnecessarily sensitive.
  • The use of low-quality or too aggressive cosmetics. When purchasing cosmetics of dubious quality in non-specialized stores, there is always a risk of getting along with them irritation and redness that occurs on the face. The same can happen if the cosmetics are too aggressive. Not all skin types are suitable for this or that product.
  • Seasonal impacts. In summer, the skin does not have enough moisture, traces of the negative influence of direct sunlight appear on it. In winter, her condition is aggravated by frost, wind, air dried out by heating devices. In the spring, vitamin deficiency often occurs - a deficiency of vitamins in the body, which immediately manifests itself as problems on the skin.

Internal influences include the occurrence of a disease that affects the epidermis. It can be allergies, skin diseases, and diseases of internal organs. This group includes both the harmful effects of bad habits and the side effects of prolonged use of drugs.

The psychological state of a person also plays an important role, red spots on the face appear with strong emotional overload.

Varieties

They can be subdivided according to the duration of manifestation:

  • Redness is temporary. The reason for this fact is hot flushes, redness in such cases is localized on the cheeks. It is caused by the high activity of the vessels located directly under the skin. With the expansion of the capillaries, redness occurs, with the narrowing - the normalization of the complexion. Such redness, as a rule, does not last long.
  • Longer redness. They appear from damage by aggressive external components (both seasonal and cosmetic) and persist for several days until skin regeneration begins.
  • Persistent redness. Redness caused by diseases, inflammatory processes will appear until the disease is completely eliminated. Until the problem is stopped, skin problems will not only not disappear, but threaten to aggravate - the appearance of peeling and various rashes.

Diseases causing this problem

Both redness and peeling can appear as a result of disorders in the body:

  • Seasonal allergies, or allergic reactions to medicines and cosmetics. They are accompanied by peeling, itching and redness of certain areas of the face.
  • Colds... Depending on the individual's immunity, redness and chapping of the skin around the nose and lips appears in case of a cold.
  • Skin diseases.

And also diseases:

Depending on the cause of redness and flaking on the face, you should look for a way to eliminate them.

Treatment can be carried out in several directions:

Medication

If the problems that appear on the face are the result of internal diseases, then it is dangerous to self-medicate. The use of cosmetics will be useless. It is necessary to contact a specialist who will prescribe the necessary medications. Only complete elimination of the disease will return the face to a fresh, healthy look.

The health-improving course consists in the complete elimination of the resulting dysfunction of internal systems and organs, the normalization of hormonal stability, and the avoidance of stress.

Treatment for dermatological diseases includes both general therapy and the use of local external procedures that reduce symptoms such as dryness, burning, itching.

Pharmacies offer a wide range of ointments and skin creams:

  • Eplan. Cream for the treatment of psoriasis, eczema, herpes. Relieves itching, swelling, redness.
  • "Bepanten"... It is prescribed for the treatment of dermatitis and as a prophylactic agent.
  • "Sin-Cap"... Possesses antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antifungal effects
  • "Radevit". Non-hormonal remedy for dermatitis. Has anti-inflammatory, emollient and protective effect.
  • Elidel. Anti-inflammatory cream
  • Fenistil. Gel that reduces allergic reactions on the skin, has an analgesic effect
  • ... The cream has a pronounced absorbent, anti-inflammatory, analgesic effect.

Nutrition and diet

To ensure the safety of the digestive system, the process of proper healthy nutrition should be organized.

  • Categorically exclude fatty and spicy foods, alcohol, coffee, strong tea from the diet. Sweet and flour products will not add health to the whole body as a whole, or to the skin of the face in particular.
  • It is better to consume more green vegetables, fruits, berry and herbal infusions.

  • When choosing a diet, pay attention to its intensity. Often an unprofessional approach in this matter provokes the occurrence of stomach diseases, a violation of fluid balance, from which the skin on the face dries up and flakes. In the event of visible lesions, pain, you must immediately stop using the dietary course.

These useful chemical compounds are needed by the body for full activity, they must be taken both as an internal remedy and as an external preparation. The skin, like any other organ, needs vitamins. It is necessary to organize their systematic intake, especially for the prevention of vitamin deficiency.

For external use, use caring creams containing vitamins.

Home treatment

Homemade masks and creams will help against peeling and redness only if the problematic causes are not lurking inside the body. Home remedies will have to be applied systematically for a long time, they will not solve the problem 1 or 2 times.

Scrub "Sea salt"

The body begins a destructive action against itself. Whole organ systems are affected by such diseases, and they require complex therapy.

The reasons for the uncontrolled aggression of the body's defenses are:

  1. Internal type:
    • Type I gene mutations. Lymphocytes simply cannot distinguish between the type of cells in the body. Such diseases include thyroiditis or toxic goiter.
    • Type II gene mutations. In addition to aggression, blood cells provoke their uncontrolled reproduction in the body. These diseases include lupus and multiple sclerosis. Often these problems arise from heredity.
  2. External reasons:
    • Infections. Protracted illnesses of this nature can cause malfunctioning of the immune system.
    • The harmful effects of the environment.
    • Biological deception of the body's defenses by diseased cells. In this case, lymphocytes lose the ability to distinguish between enemies and friends.
