Hello,
From what you have described, rosacea is an important possibility that needs to be ruled out. Rosacea is a cutaneous disorder of the central part of the face , such as forehead, cheeks, nose and chin. Pimples or acne are sometimes included as part of the definition. Even the possibility of steroid induced rosacea is there.
Steroid induced rosacea or dermatitis is an adverse effects of using steroids. Some patients develop steroid-induced rosacea within weeks of applying a topical steroid; others may not experience it for years.
Avoiding rosacea triggers, such as caffeine, spicy foods, and alcohol, also may help clear the skin. Also use of antibiotic creams, antihistaminics, sun screens and tacrolimus(available by prescription) helps but consultation of a dermatologist is required first.
I sincerely hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
The other option is to find out what you really have. Dermatologist usually hurry, then stick to that. Prescribe a cream, take your money and send you out the door.
They give you something that covers all the bases and tell you you have the one thing that will not educate you enough you can go find a fix online and not need them. LOL
I don't know they are that bad. But it sure seems so.
I know a kid, who had the same thing as you and was told he was allergic to vinyl, and I don't think he was. I don't know what you have. But good luck. Because it seems skin doctors don't feel your pain or anquish at all. And people seem to get the same answers from all of them. It is like this : they take the symptoms, and choose the thing it looks like the most! That way it is fast and easy. Big money for 5 minutes time. NEXT!
Never a test. Or questions any more than a couple to convince you they are making some kind of effort for all that money and to eat up at lest 5 minutes time.
When so many times it could be something else that is very similar! And once they decide, they will never admit they are wrong and change their minds. At your expense.
One will be coming along any time now to paste in one of their generic answers for you!
