There isn\u2019t a concrete answer why Rosacea usually starts in the 30\u2019s and older since the cause of this disorder is unknown<\/strong><\/a>. That\u2019s right. Medical science hasn\u2019t quite yet cracked the code on this one.There are a lot of different theories as to the existence of this disease, but none of which have been proven yet as of this writing. Nevertheless, it\u2019s still important to get as much information as you can regarding this disease and to be able to identify symptoms as early as possible. Also, don\u2019t panic if you suspect you might have symptoms of rosacea. The best thing you can do is to seek out a local dermatologist<\/strong> with experience in treating the symptoms of rosacea.

What is Rosacea?<\/h2>\n

Rosacea is a chronic disease that affects parts of the face and unfortunately, a cure is still unknown. However, continued research has allowed doctors to find possible ways to minimize its symptoms and eventually treat this condition. It can be identified by small, red, pus-filled bumps on the skin that are present during flare-ups.<\/p>\n

Causes. (These are only theories and are not yet proven.)<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. One of the most common theories is that Rosacea might be a component of a more generalized blood vessel disorder.<\/li>\n
  2. Another theory is that the condition may have been caused by skin mites, fungus or a malfunction of the connective tissues under the skin.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Symptoms<\/h2>\n

     <\/p>\n

    1.\u00a0\u00a0 Frequent flushing or blushing of the face.<\/h3>\n

    This is often the first and maybe the only symptom for months or even years until more serious symptoms develop.<\/p>\n

    2.\u00a0\u00a0 Persistent redness or Erythema of parts of the face<\/h3>\n

    This is very similar to sunburn in appearance.<\/p>\n

    3.\u00a0\u00a0 Small lumpy red spots and pimples.<\/h3>\n

    These spots look extremely similar to acne, but there are no blackheads. And they tend to come and go in some cases. But they can persist for the long-term in some cases, and if they do it\u2019s definitely time to reach out to a local dermatologist for a consult.<\/p>\n

    4.\u00a0\u00a0 Visible blood vessels.<\/h3>\n

    This is commonly called \u201ctelagiectasia\u201d <\/em>and they tend to become prominent on your face.<\/p>\n

    5.\u00a0\u00a0 Eye symptoms<\/h3>\n
