How can i distinguish between a facial rash and rosacea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rash vs rosacea: If in doubt go see a dermatologist. The signs of rosacea are usually midface area, prolonged and unchanging presence, and actual thickening of the skin. It is more affected by sun exposure and hormonal changes that a rash from a dermatitis would be.
