Rosacea is a harmless but chronic skin condition, that causes swelling of the blood vessels just under the skin on the face. It appears as spider-like blood vessels causing the nose to be red and acne-like skin sores to appear. There may also be a burning or stinging feeling in the face and irritated, bloodshot, watery eyes. It may also be associated with other skin disorders such as acne or eye disorders. The cause of Roscea is unknown, however it typically affects people aged 30-50 who are fair skinned. Since treatment varies with each person it is best to make an appointment for an evaluation and correct diagnosis.
