A member asked:

Could metabolic acidosis be one possible cause of rosacea ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely: Rosacea is usually caused by or aggravated by sun or wind exposure, spices, and alcohol. Metabolic acidosis is not usually a cause, but I don't know whether it would aggravate it. A dermatologist is best qualified to answer your question and treat rosacea.
