I was diagnosed with Rosacea today? Its a skin condition that causes redness and rashes. Does anyone else have it.

I have had it for years. At times I have had to use topical ointment, but if you avoid certain foods and sun, you can control it.

LOTS of people have it. Many just have skin redness.

@Livingwell: I went to the dermatologist because of a red rash on my face that wouldn't go away. A rosacea rash apparently

@Julie44: It can be. Fortunately I have a mild case.

thanks gosh I don't have it. I think most of these kind of skin diseases are common among white people due to their low melanin amount.
