Common Questions and Answers about Alcohol allergy acne

alcohol

Avatar n tn Hi, Have you been given a diagnosis during your consults? Has this been present for a long time? Do you have any known allergies? One common differential for a red face is rosacea? Have they discussed this with you? Face redness may be due to flushing of the face. Facial flushing is due to dilation of blood vessels in the face.The redness is caused by the increased blood "rush" to the area.
Avatar f tn It definitely sounds like you could have some type of allergy to alcohol! I have a friend who has very similar symptoms after drinking but his normally starts within about 6 hours of having a couple of drinks. Alcohol allergies at some level is surprisingly more common than most people think. My advice, talk to your Dr. about it just to make sure its nothing more serious ie: liver issues. Good luck!
779797 tn?1263618235 s called intoxication, not allergy. None of your symptoms point to an alcohol allergy. I suggest you stay away from it. Why make matters worse? Have you seen a doctor for any of these symptoms? Something as simple as an inner ear problem can also cause dizziness. Allergies can pop up out of nowhere. Did you test positive for anything?
Avatar m tn Avoid wine and alcohol products if you know that they trigger an asthma/ allergy attack. There are already a number of wines without the preservatives that causes the allergy. But have yourself tested first with what you are allergic to.
Avatar m tn I every now n then have acne like stuff on my upper arms and lower arms and also at the back side of my head known as donor site i dont why is it hapening pls help
Avatar f tn But what really help keep the acne down was a hot water facial wash and alcohol. I stopped using soap and water to wash my face and just used hot water it cleans the pours and steams the face getting out the dirt and oil.
Avatar m tn I had an allergy to alcohol. It gave me asthma that once was so sudden and severe that I was blacking out. Luckily my dinner partner was a doctor. I was subsequently cured of the allergy. The throat problem certainly sounds like allergy, except for the delay in your reaction. It should be immediate. It seems more likely that alcohol or some additive in the alcohol is toxic for you. If that is the case you should never drink anything alcoholic.
Avatar n tn Doctor, do you think these patches of folliculitis could be from food allergy, like some facial acne. Also i have taken doxycycline before and that took it away for the most part. would starting another regiment of that help clear the infection?
Avatar f tn My face gets red when I take hot showers, when I change from a cool setting to a warm setting. I have some old acne dark spots and they get darker when I blush. I feel my face warm and honestly, it is very uncomfortable. I have tried avoiding the sun, I have even taken claritin thinking it could be an allergy. I do not know what to do. I was told that maybe I have Physical Urticaria, but I have researched and yes although I have some symptoms, I never itch.
Avatar n tn I am checking into Celiac disease, fructose malabsorption and now sulfite allergy-thanks guys. I also have trouble with water hurting my stomach. Sulfite allergy would explain that. I will post more after my GI appt.
Avatar m tn m in an airplane or roller coaster, paleness in my face, muscle weakness, chronic fatigue and uncomfortness, increase of acne, dizziness once in a while, sore throat, and if whenever I get a bruise, it takes longer to heal? I don't have pain, I just feel truely weak. Please somebody tell me what might be possibly wrong with me?
Avatar f tn Not being caused by pregnancy I don't think. Your skin could just be irritated. Try taking a warm shower with soap that you have used in the past. You could get some cortisone cream and put it on if it's itchy.
Avatar n tn Normally it does not cause any allergic reaction or contact dermatitis but some people can show semen allergy. It is due to proteins in semen or other allergic substances transmitted in semen like some medicines. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar n tn I do have high blood pressure and do take medicine. I am a smoker and do drink some alcohol. I take procardia, metorprol and lisinipril for the blood pressure. With these meds it is regulated. I did have some tests done earlier in the year. One was a speical Cardio CT Angiogram and showed some narrowing of one artery, but not blocked. I have to watch my diet and stop smoking. Recently my face has gotten red more frequently.
Avatar m tn Our reaction to alcohol is what makes us alcoholics, not how much we drink. The best way to describe it is an allergy to alcohol. When we drink all bets are off. We end up with consequences. Her relationship with you was based on the Tony before the bottle of Vodka. When you become that Tony again, things will change for the better. But the most important thinking in sobriety is to be sober for YOU and you alone. Learn to love yourself. All else will follow.
Avatar f tn I am wondering if maybe he is allergic to dairy or something...but he has no other allergy symptons other than the acne on his face.
Avatar f tn s not quite what I consider excessive alcohol intake. I have been avoiding all alcohol this month, and it still happened when I had a medium-spicy Indian curry last week. Not sure if it's helpful at all, but these blushes(?) go away on their own without treatment, usually within a few hours. I'm starting to wonder if it might not be some sort of gluten intolerance...
Avatar f tn Ive been in allergy shots 3 sessions so far an severe acne and only gotten a pimple or two here and there my whole life previous to this around stress or period. This is so bad and looks like kind that will cause very bad scars. I think I may quit the shots, having scared face isn’t worth this and 5 years time doing it. Rather keep taking pills and sneeze than look and feel this way! 42 yearsold never had skin issues till these shots.
