What causes the red blood streaks under the nose

The nose is the reflex area of ​​the spleen and stomach, and many diseases can manifest themselves on the nose. First, the tip of the nose can show the health of the spleen, and the wings can show the health of the stomach. When the spleen and stomach functions of the human body decline, the nose will show some symptoms. According to experience, red blood streaks in the nose indicate varicose veins in the stomach. We often think that varicose veins should not be found in the legs. In fact, there are also internal organs. The red blood streaks on the face are the result of dilation of the capillaries on the face, not thinning of the skin. Let’s take a look at what causes red blood streaks under the nose.

The facial flushing caused by temporary capillary dilation will return to normal after a while. However, if it recurs over a long period of time, it may lead to persistent redness of the cheeks. Long-term continuous capillary dilation will cause red blood streaks. You can see branch-like red blood streaks on your cheeks, especially on both sides of the nose. This is the result of obvious dilation of capillaries. Sometimes you can see the dilated small blood vessels in branch-like shape through the skin. Due to the vigorous secretion of local sebaceous glands, the nose appears red and bright. As the disease progresses, the skin may proliferate and thicken, and even develop rashes or small pustules, and the appearance may become rough and uneven, forming "rosacea".

The causes of nasal capillary dilation are very complicated. Currently, most scholars believe that Demodex infection is an important factor in the onset of the disease, but not the only factor. Alcoholism, spicy food, high temperature and cold stimulation, digestion, endocrine disorders, etc. can also induce nasal capillary dilation.

In addition, long-term mental stress, gastrointestinal dysfunction, smoking, alcoholism, and eating spicy and irritating foods can also induce nasal capillary dilation.

The main factor causing rosacea is infection of hair follicle mites, which stimulate the secretion of sebaceous glands. The large amount of sebaceous gland secretion will aggravate the growth of mites. The vicious cycle causes the skin of the nose to become thicker and harder, the capillaries of the nose to continue to dilate, and the symptoms continue to worsen.

Diagnosis

The symptoms of nasal capillary dilation are obvious bloodshot eyes on both sides of the nose. Patients with severe disease may develop chronic inflammatory skin lesions on the nose, which mostly occur in middle-aged men. It usually presents as redness on the external nasal skin, most notably at the tip of the nose. The capillaries in the nose are obviously dilated, and sometimes you can see the dilated small blood vessels in a branch-like shape through the skin. Due to the vigorous secretion of local sebaceous glands, the nose appears red and bright. As the disease progresses, the skin may proliferate and thicken, and even develop rashes or small pustules, and the appearance may become rough and uneven, forming "rosacea".

Treatment and care

Whether red blood streaks appear on the face, legs, nose wings or other parts of the body, the key to treatment is to ensure the normal functioning of the body's microcirculation. Worrying about the side effects of drugs is also a concern for most patients with red blood streaks. The nose is the reflex area of ​​the spleen and stomach. The tip of the nose is the spleen, and the two wings are the stomach. Based on clinical experience, red blood streaks on the wings of your nose indicate that you have varicose veins in your stomach. It is recommended to take good care of your stomach at this time, but do not use Western medicine for treatment. Large amounts of Chinese medicine will also have side effects on other internal organs of the body. In your diet, you should be careful not to eat spicy foods that are too irritating, and especially avoid alcohol. The diet should be light and eat more fruits and vegetables. Be careful to avoid stimulation of excessive cold or heat, and don't be emotionally excited or mentally nervous. You can take appropriate amounts of B vitamins orally, such as vitamin B2, B6, and vitamin B complex.

Please note that the use of topical cosmetics can only improve the symptoms of red blood streaks on the surface of the skin. It is very single-minded and only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.

The above is an explanation of how the red blood streaks under the nose are caused. In daily life, some external cosmetic products contain irritating ingredients and hormones, and contain a large number of harmful chemical ingredients that will cause damage if they come into direct contact with the skin. Some of the freckle creams on the market now often have a very strong exfoliating effect, which can easily cause symptoms of capillary dilation on our facial skin. They are very difficult to treat, so we should pay attention to it in daily life.
