General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello

I think the right diagnosis was rosacea. It is dilatation of blood vessels. Treatment consists of azealic acid locally.

However, sometimes should understand the triggering factors in order to avoid them and prevent flare up.

You can send a photo of the affected skin to me for a more detailed opinion.

All the best.
