Rosacea is a common skin disease in adults that has a variety of clinical manifestations and most common in fair-skinned individuals, but it can be seen in any skin type. Rosacea flare-up usually begins with flushing of the ace, most noticeable the nose and cheeks. This facial redness is the most obvious symptoms. Other problems cited are dry skin, itching, with burning and stinging sensations. Signs to look for are facial redness, visible damaged blood vessels, bumps and pimples, irritated eyes and, in severe cases, enlarged nose. Such a chronic and hereditary skin disorder can be further aggravated by external sources such as sunlight, extreme hot or cold temperatures, spicy foods, alcohol as well as physical and mental stress.
The pathogenesis of rosacea is multifactorial, but it is clearly related to vascular hyper-reactivity. Foods and manifestations that induce facial vasodilation seem to speed the development of rosacea. The vasodilation of rosacea patients is greater and more persistent than that seen in normal person.
Rosacea is a chronic and often life disrupting disorder of the facial skin. Though commonly known as acne rosacea, it’s more identified as a skin rash. Unlike acne, blackheads and whiteheads are almost never present. While over 85 percent of teenagers and as much as 20 percent of adults are affected with acne, rosacea is most common in fair skin of Caucasian women age range 30 to 60.
