My daughter was not born with these symptoms, her skin was normal at birth. From an early age i noticed that she was succeptible to fluctuations in temperature and her skin would flush easily especially in a warm room. Since the age of 4+ the angry flush in her cheeks would last longer, sometimes almost turning purple. In the past year my child has had an almost permanent 'ruddy' flush to her cheeks. I am 37 and have had similar problems all my life, although the broken capillaries in my skin have only become prominent in the last 7 years. Please can anyone explain to me what the problem is and why my child is experiencing these symptoms and what can i do to prevent further damage to her skin. When her skin does flush and the vivid red patches appear they can last several hours, when in this flushed state they are burning hot to the touch. I always make sure my child has pleanty of fluid to drink!
