What is Rosacea? Various ways of treatment
Rosacea is a very common skin condition that causes patches of blotchy redness usually on the face with visible blood vessels. It can also create pus-filled bumps. Rosacea is an unpredictable condition and can appear without warning and flare up and then disappear for weeks or months at a time. There are treatments for Rosacea but it is important to obtain an accurate diagnosis first as Rosacea can be mistaken for acne or other skin problems including just a harmless high face colour. There is no cure for Rosacea but sufferers will often report positively about the benefit of using one of the many proprietary creams to reduce the visible symptoms. You can buy Miraso gel online in the UK from Pharmacy Planet or buy Rozex gel and cream online in the UK - all of these treatments can help manage Rosacea and its sudden appearance.
Who gets Rosacea?
Anyone can get Rosacea at any age but it is most common in middle-aged women with light skin colour.
Symptoms of Rosacea
- Facial redness which is persistent
- Small blood vessels on the nose and cheeks which swells and become prominent
- Swollen red bumps and pimples that can look like acne, sometimes these contain pus
- Dry, irritated and swollen eyes, this is called Ocular Rosacea
- An enlarged nose, over time Rosacea, can thicken the skin on the nose causing it to appear bulbous
Managing Rosacea is about reducing anything which can make it worse – avoid excessive heat or sunshine, alcohol or topical products that irritate the skin. Use creams or gels to reduce the redness and inflammation; creams can offer great benefits for Rosacea sufferers.
