Next week rheumatologist

[Vekiqf]

Hi all,

as I mentioned I started to see small rash on my face and dermathologyst told me that is it rosacea and it gets slightly worst on sun...so I am still worried that it is malar rash...I checked my pictures from last few years and can say that I had it in the past. Rush is slightly red with parts where I have spiderweb vains ( this part is little itchy and burning)..so can rosace get worst in the sun?

Next week I will meet rheumatologist ( best in my country) so will update you all...

I am worried that it is lupus and I am father of 2 lovely kids and want to be always super ready for them...

Thanks

Absolutely. Vitamin D may make rosacea worse according to researchers in Turkey. ... Eighty-one percent of patients with rosacea report that sun exposure makes it worse. Of the many environmental triggers that exacerbate the condition, sun exposure is actually the most common.23 Jul 2013
