I was sick 4 times yesterday and about 4.00 I got these little red blotches all over my face, especially on my eyes. I get them regularly after being sick but they took about a week to go away. I have a meet-up with friends tonight, and I want these spots to go away. I can't wear make-up over them as it irritates my skin. Is there anything that will speed up them disappearing?

I get the same thing after I throw up as well..my face gets hot ..and red spots everywhere..I vomit yesterday and right after my face experienced it and still red and blotchy today..sometimes it is light and just under my cheeks and eyes.. but this time my whole face minus my forehead area...I just wait for them to go away 1-2 days..how long this time we shall see.. question is does this only happen to ppl with lighter skin or is the lighter skin more noticable.. meaning everyone or not

I'm 23 years old, and have never in my life had this happen until today when I threw up due to an empty stomach. I take a special medication, and also recently started taking iron and vitamin c on and off. It had me worried because it's from the bottom of my forehead to down almost below my nose, and it's really thick. Even the vessels in my eyes burst. It still has me worried because I was always the one that was tough as nails, and never even had a cough, and as bad as I look now just from calling dinosaurs is odd. It makes me feel like my bodies giving out on me or something. I had a drug problem for a few years and have been sober for almost 2 years now, but I'm still not back in the shape I was before drugs, and never will be.

I have bipolar disorder too and I get a dark face whenever I throw up since I've been on lithium as a mood stabiliser. Never knew about low platelets. Will ask my doctor about iron. Just threw up last night from food poisoning so sporting an over tanned look! Thanks.

there is nothing to make it clear up but cold water might work but a little by little it will clear up naturally

I'm also on meds and just within the last couple years starting getting these red rash spots when I get sick. I'm glad I'm not the only one it was really starting to concern me.
