Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM,

As per your query you have redness on the cheeks which can be most probably due to allergic reaction only that can be due to Contact dermatitis caused by any skin cosmetic,bug bite, soaps etc. Food allergies can also be a cause. As of now you can take anti allergics like Benadryl and do cool compresses to relieve the symptoms. I would suggest you to consult an dermatologist and get evaluated. Once the cause of allergy is ruled out avoiding exposure to the allergen can relieve the symptoms. Apply cold compresses on affected area to reduce redness.

Hope your concern has been resolved .

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
