Suggest Treatment For Reddish Sunburn Marks Around Nose And Eyes
Hi about two years ago while on holiday I got a mild sunburn across the bridge of my nose and the areas under my eyes. Now two years later these areas are still reddish especially in the summer time, whereas in winter the redness fades slightly but is stop visible. I was wondering if you knew any reason for this and if so any possible treatment? Thankyou

Hi. I doubt the effects of sunburn would last for two long years. I suspect rosacea from the description. Is the redness associated with any discomfort, itching or burning? Is there any increase in redness and discomfort on sun exposure, spicy foods and hot beverages like coffee? Is there any red bumps/ pus filled lesions too? Please provide more details.
