What Causes Redness On Face?

Hi, I am fair skinned and of Irish decent. I work night shift and in the morning when I am getting off work at 6:00 AM my face is very red. Once a day at about 4:00 PM I take 10mg Crestor and 10mg prinivil along with two aspirins.What do you think? Is it because I m tired?

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi.
As per your case history of redness of face, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid sun exposure and use a good sunscreen lotion with spf more than 30.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Take a vitamin c supplement once daily for 3 months.
4. Other treatment options are topical steroid, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
