What is rosacea?
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that primarily affects the face, causing redness, visible blood vessels, and often small, red, sometimes pus-filled bumps. The skin tends to be very sensitive and may experience burning or stinging sensations. Rosacea often flares up periodically and then goes into remission for a while. While the exact cause of rosacea is unknown, factors like genetics, abnormalities in blood vessels, and the presence of certain mites on the skin may play a role. Triggers such as sunlight, stress, spicy foods, alcohol, and hot beverages can exacerbate symptoms.
