Rosacea is a chronic skin condition characterized by facial redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small, red bumps or pustules. It commonly affects the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin, leading to a flushed appearance. Rosacea can also cause discomfort, such as burning or stinging sensations, and may worsen over time if left untreated.
The exact cause of rosacea is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors. Triggers can include sun exposure, hot or cold weather, spicy foods, alcohol, stress, and certain skin care products. Individuals with a family history of rosacea are at a higher risk.
While there is no cure for rosacea, various treatments can help manage symptoms and reduce flare-ups. Common options include:

Maintaining a gentle skincare routine, avoiding known triggers, using sun protection, and keeping the skin hydrated can help manage rosacea. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
