I finally got rid of that terribly itchy rash that was in the nether regions, and then I wake up to this! I lave googled “facial rash” and have come up with several not so pleasant possibilities, such as rosacea and lupus. It looks like a trip to the doctor is in store for me next week. Gahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
This rash is red, and while it is not so much itchy, it does feel all “burny” and sore if I touch it, almost like a sunburn except that I haven’t been out in the sun or wind. Anyone got any ideas? Now I know for sure I’m gonna be the kid with cooties!

January 8, 2011 at 10:27 amHow did you get rid of the itching? Did you find out what was causing it?
From googling burning face rash it was suggested that it might be soap or shampoo related. Have you changed either of those? Gold Bond Anti-Itch cream was suggested.
Good luck. You are having your problems.

January 8, 2011 at 10:56 amI tend to “hold” yeast in my body and instead of, or sometimes in addition to, getting a yeast infection internally, I will get it on my arms or on my face. Maybe you’ve got something like that?

I don’t know, but maybe stress. Sure hope a dr can help you this time.

May 25, 2011 at 5:57 pmI had an identical looking rash for months – small red bumps on my cheeks, some mildly itchy, but burned a little when I scratched them. Some with a firm, sore lump beneath them. Tried everything to get rid of them. Some bumps would heal up, but others would appear. Finally figure out what caused it – GLUTEN INTOLERANCE! Turns out it was at the root of all the other health problems I’d had for decades also: chronic fatigue, depression, hormonal problems, nausea, dental deterioration, weight gain, etc. Within 48 hours of eliminating it, all of my symptoms, including the inmpossible rash, saw vast improvement. Now I always know when I’ve been “glutened” because a few bumps will reappear, and take about a week to completely heal. Something to consider…

November 25, 2012 at 5:40 pmIt turned out to be rosacea–I had to take a antibiotic for a while, and it could come back. But yeah, Rosacea
