NOT a classic rosacea sympton

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone--

Can anybody relate? Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I have mild to moderate redness, on both cheeks, worse on the left...sometimes,

too frequently to be ignored, i notice the worse side, the cheek that is worse

develops a number of little whiteheads, like all the pores there are clogged...I

know whiteheads aren't supposed to be part of 'classic rosacea'--whatever that

is--does this sound familiar to anyone?

No, I don't use anything heavy that is clogging my pores, unless one counts

Sy's VitaOil and I use that infrequently. And only a couple of drops!

And my face isn't OILY either. This is just the red patch, the worser of the

two.

If cea is NOT bacterial, then can it still cause such a reaction on my face?

ALL info would be greatly appreciated--any anectodal info--any medical

opinion--any personal opinion! I value them ALL!

Thanks for all your help.

MARIE
