My facial skin, especially my cheeks and nose, get really red and mainly it happens in summers sometimes in winters too. I visited the dermatologist and she said its rosacea and gave me some antibiotics and topical medication like erythego gel and metronidazole gel which I don?t think are working for me because my cheeks still get red and itchy and dry too.
