acne itchiness and blushing Posted: 01-21-08 06:55am
Well i am a 18 yr old teenager and i have
quite severe acne problem but now it seems
to have recovered a little. The problem i
am facing now is when i get hot or feel
shy, my whole body becomes itchy. The
itchiness is horrible, it's like thousands
of needles poking my body. So i always
control it till sometimes i blush. I
wonder why i always blush and my body gets
very warm. Is it related to health problem
or psychological problem? I hate it when
my face started to warm up(blush)
suddenly. I felt down because of this and
have been avoiding some social contact
with others. Someone please help me out.
Thank you.

You most likely have cholinergic
urticaria, or CU. Check out the "i most
likely have cholinergic urticaria" thread
in the Allergies and Asthma section. I
have this condition to. From the other
posts, it seems as though those with acne
have a higher tendancy to develop this
condition. The best thing to do is sweat
everyday, go for a run or bike ride, bear
through the pain, and it will subside. It
gets better and better if you do this on a
regular daily basis. Read the other thread
for some more tips and advice.
