How to help your rosacea naturally

Rosacea can be a disease which can either really effect your life or just be bothersome. If you are effected in any way, it is always worth looking into natural treatment for rosacea so that you can get the best benefits.

Today there is no real cure for rosacea unfortunately. This is because modern medicine cannot find a cause, because of this the treatment for rosacea is a disease that is just treated by reducing the symptoms or "masking them".

The conventional treatment available at the moment is just treatment to ease and relieve the symptoms, these are far from ideal due to their long term nature. The newer more expensive laser and light therapy also just work on the symptoms and are not very effective

Managing your rosacea should really include natural treatment. This form of treatment can be safe and healthy as well as supports your body.

Natural treatment can be categorised into 2 main parts which you can look at-

Part 1 - Stop your rosacea getting worse
part 2 - Relieve your symptoms

Treating your Rosacea naturally by looking at the two aspects will help you clarify the best way forward.

Lets look more detailed into the 2 main treatments

PART 1 - Stop irritating the rosacea so that it does not get worse

Most rosacea sufferers will see thier general doctor or even a dermatologist, the problem is that most of these doctors are not specialised in rosacea and will not be able to teach their patients about rosacea as they themselves don't know. One of the biggest lesson that each rosacea sufferer can do is monitor how and when the rosacea gets worse.

Most Rosacea sufferers get times when they have worse symptoms or thier rosacea just gets aggravated, this may be very slight and not as obvious in you, but keep your eye on it. If you start recording your days activities, the weather and what you have eaten and consumed, you will spot patterns of what it is that causes your Rosacea to get worse

You may have keep recording until you see a pattern, but it will emerge and when you do you will know what to avoid. Because everybody with Rosacea has different triggers factors, it is hard to know what these are for each person

Here is a list of some "triggers" that have been known to increase rosacea symptoms-

#1 Cold exposure
#2 Stress and stressful situations
#3 Sun Exposure
#4 Soap and non natural skin creams
#5 Strenuous Exercise or intense exercise
#6 Hot drinks like tea and Coffee
#7 Drinking alcohol

These are just a few examples of what you can look out for and record to find the trigger which effects.

Part two - Ease your face

PART 2 can help you by making the redness decrease as well as reduce pain and itching

The 2 things found to relieve and provide comfort to your face are

2) Give yourself facial massage if you are not in too much pain. Do this once a day. Use gentle circular motions which will allow your facial muscles to relax and any blood pooled around to flow back
