Question 1

Any options for blepharitis when antibiotic therapy/steroids fail? (have had for ten years with rosacea)take fish/flaxseed oil daily.

Accepted Answer

It appears that physicians have tried to treat you with the usual methods. One then looks at the environment for possible causes. There are now many steps to make the living areas of home and office less irritating and maybe decrease some of your symptoms. When did this first develop for you? What types of eye make up do you use? Do you wear contact lens? A detailed history helps find  treatment

Question 2

Can i use baby oil to help my red rosacea cheeks?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately the redness from rosacea is very difficult to treat. Baby oil is unlikely to do much except clog your pores. I would recommend trying one of the over the counter redness relief lines from clinique or eucerin or a consult with your doctor to try some prescription rosacea medications.

Question 3

I have rosacea and my cream isn't working anymore.  i tried olive oil (works for my mum) but it doesn't help either.  what else can i try?

Accepted Answer

There are many treatments.  I assume you are using Metronidazole topically and have the papulopustular variety of rosacea and are already doing the basics well.  Additional treatments include topical azelaic acid, sulfacetamide/sulfur, Adapalene and tretinoin.  If these are not effective, oral antibiotics may be considered. Laser and Isotretinoin are further down the road.

Flax seed can help to lower cholesterol & low-density lipoprotein levels & help reduce the risk of heart disease.  Because your body can digest ground flaxseed better than whole flaxseed, the ground flaxseed is preferable.  This will provide more of the benefits from the lignans and the omega – 3 –fatty acids in the flaxseed. With flaxseed oil, it is quite important that it be cold pressed.
