COLD & FLU COMMUNITY
red hot puffy cheeks

red hot puffy cheeks

My husband and I both have the flu. I started getting sick 4 days ago. Yesterday my cheeks became very red and hot. They are still like that today. They almost look burned but they don't hurt. Seem kind of puffy too. I have never had this before and wonder what it is and if it is something to worry about

It is getting much better. I have been putting zinc oxide ointment on both cheeks.
I had no other rashes.
