Well, when I go outside to the cold, I feel fine.
But then suddenly I go into a very warm place and my nose turns very red and then my whole face gets these weird pink things that look like big mosquito bites around my forehead, cheecks, pretty much my whole face. After a while, it goes away, but then it comes back again. What is this? Could it be rosacea?

Oh and, my mom can't afford to take me to the doctor, 'cause we don't have insurance... but I'd like to know what's going on...

Please help me, thanks.

You know, I've met people who absolutely swear that they are allergic to the cold. It sounds like you're getting hives. Hives can look exactly like mosquito bites. Apparently really cold temperatures can cause an immune ie allergic reaction on the skin of some people. This is quite possibly what it is! Try taking Benadryl when it happens... if it goes away with the Benadryl, it's almost definitely an allergy.

UPDATE: I looked this up out of curiosity and hey, the Mayo clinic says I'm right! http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/allergy/AN00693

So there you go, you're probably allergic to the cold. :)
