Ask the Doctors Archive
- Are rosacea and seborrhea related? Are there other medical conditions that symptoms of rosacea could also be attributed to?
- I'm a rosacea sufferer and recently read a medical article on a drug for treating rosacea that claims it might heal the condition. Do you have any information that might validate such a claim?
- I feel extremely worried and depressed about my appearance, and don't know what to do. I think I have rosacea because my nose has changed color or it looks red and irritated, and it's swollen in the mornings.
- My eyes have been itching and watering and sometimes feel like something is in them. Is there a treatment I need from an eye doctor in addition to the dermatologist treatment?
- Is there a link between chronic nasal blockage and rosacea?
- I think I may have rosacea. What can I do to best prepare for my appointment with the dermatologist?
- Does eating spicy foods contribute to a permanent worsening of rosacea?
- Can dust mites be responsible for rosacea flare-ups?
- Is there a link between rosacea and eyebrow waxing? When I have my eyebrows waxed, I end up with very swollen skin that is covered with large bumps.
