What Is Rosacea?

Rosacea is a skin ailment that produces flushing and visible blood vessels in the face. Small, pus-filled lumps may also appear. These signs and symptoms may appear for weeks or months and eventually disappear. Rosacea can be confused with acne, other skin conditions, or natural ruddiness.

• Blushing or flushing of the face: Rosacea can cause chronic blushing or flushing in the center of your face.
• Veins that are visible: The blood vessels in your nose and cheeks rupture and become apparent (spider veins).
• Bumps and swelling: Many people who have rosacea get acne-like blemishes on their faces. These pimples may include pus.
• Burning sensation: The affected area’s skin may feel hot and painful.
• Issues with the eyes: Many people who have rosacea have dry, itchy, swollen eyes and eyelids. This is referred to as ocular rosacea. In some cases, the eye symptoms come before the skin signs.
• Enlarged nose: Rosacea can cause the skin on the nose to thicken over time, giving the nose a bulbous appearance (rhinophyma). This is more common in men than in women.
