Exposure To Heat Or Cold

[Guide]

Heat or cold exposure is just about on every rosacea trigger list. Even in the general population heat or cold usually produces a red face. For a rosacean this is not a good idea since it irritates rosacea further.

"Ozkol et al. reported that frequently exposed to heat from using a tandoor oven exhibited a significantly higher incidence of rosacea than control subjects." [1]
