Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 Hi everybody. Please help! I was diagnosed with rosacea a few weeks ago. I realize now that I've had it for a very long time, but i just thought i had bad skin. In January, my face literally erupted with red, blotch, huge bumps. My skin felt and looked like it was burned. In addition I had scaly, flaky skin all over my cheeks and forehead. I used Metrocream, and that helped alot. I also changed cleansers. Now, I'm getting these large bumps on my face that resemble bug bites - clear, seems to be filled with fluid, with red edges. They go away in about an hour. Does anyone else get these? I don't know if they are a symptom or rosacea, or if I'm having another problem. I would like to find a derm who is more knowledgeable about rosacea. Does anyone have any suggestions for the New York city area? Any words would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
