Скачать или смотреть Papulopustular Rosacea: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment - S4 E21

Papulopustular rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition marked by persistent facial redness, visible blood vessels, and recurring clusters of papules and pustules — particularly across the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin. In this episode we dive into what distinguishes Papulopustular Rosacea (PPR) from acne and other subtypes of Rosacea. We explore causes such as genetic predisposition, immune-system dysfunction, vascular abnormalities, and the overgrowth of Demodex folliculorum mites. We also discuss common triggers — from sun exposure, temperature extremes, and stress to spicy foods, alcohol, and hot drinks — as well as symptoms like burning or stinging sensations and skin that feels inflamed and warm. Treatment and management strategies are covered too: topical therapies (e.g., metronidazole, azelaic acid, ivermectin), oral antibiotics (e.g., doxycycline), laser therapy, and crucial lifestyle changes to avoid flare-ups.In the second part of the episode, we dig into how PPR is formally classified as “Rosacea Type 2,” what that means for diagnosis, and why it’s often misdiagnosed as acne — but why it’s not the same. We emphasise the importance of a gentle skincare routine, sun protection, and trigger-avoidance, alongside medical treatments when needed. This discussion is based on scientific studies and research summarized in the original article:
