Rosacea: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment

Rosacea is a common skin condition that leads to persistent facial redness, often accompanied by small acne-like breakouts. It primarily affects fair-skinned individuals and is more prevalent in women.

Key Characteristics of Rosacea:

• Redness on the cheeks, nose, and forehead
• Visible dilated blood vessels (telangiectasia)
• Small papules or pustules

Common Triggers:

Rosacea flare-ups can be triggered by various factors, including:

• Physical exertion (exercise, heat, sweating)
• Sun exposure and weather changes
• Emotional stress
• Spicy foods, alcohol, and hot beverages

In addition to facial redness and flushing, rosacea may also cause eye irritation, leading to redness, a burning sensation, and excessive watering. The condition is diagnosed based on clinical signs and, while there is no permanent cure, symptoms can be effectively managed with proper care and treatment.
