April is National Rosacea Awareness Month
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that makes your face turn red and may cause swelling and skin sores that look like acne.
Rosacea
is a harmless condition, but it may cause you to feel self-conscious or
embarrassed. The cause is not known.
Rosacea involves swelling of the blood vessels just under the skin. Symptoms include redness of the face, blushing or flushing easily, spider-like facial blood vessels, red nose, acne-like skin sores, burning or stinging feeling in the face, and irritated, bloodshot, watery eyes.
Your
health care provider can usually diagnose rosacea by performing a
physical exam and asking questions about your medical history.
There is no known cure for rosacea. Avoiding your triggers may help you prevent
or reduce flare-ups. Here are some steps that may help ease or prevent symptoms:
-
Avoid sun exposure. Use sunscreen every day.
-
Avoid a lot of activity in hot weather.
-
Try to reduce stress with deep breathing, yoga, or other relaxation techniques.
-
Limit spicy foods, alcohol, and hot beverages/soups.
Triggers
vary from person to person. Other triggers may include wind, hot baths,
cold weather, specific skin products, exercise, or other factors.
Antibiotics taken by mouth (such as tetracycline, minocycline, or doxycycline) or applied to the skin (such as metronidazole) may control acne-like skin problems.
Other
medications (isoretinol or Accutane), which are similar to vitamin A,
are stronger alternatives that your doctor or dermatologist might
consider.
Rosacea is not acne and will not improve with over-the-counter acne treatment.
In
severe cases, laser surgery may help reduce the redness.
