Members connected over experiencing sensitive skin and breakouts that seem to worsen during fibromyalgia flares, with many discovering their symptoms were actually rosacea, which several doctors confirmed and treated with MetroGel or other prescribed medications. Several members shared natural remedies that helped them, including virgin coconut oil for age spots and redness, tea tree oil or witch hazel for inflammation, apple cider vinegar toner, and elimination diets that reduced breakouts by removing gluten and dairy. A recurring theme was the frustration of adult acne and increased skin sensitivity tied to fibromyalgia, medications, and sun exposure, with members finding relief through gentle products like Dove Sensitive, Neutrogena Oil-Free moisturizer, or specialized systems like Proactiv and Rodan + Fields.
