Port vine stain

2016-05-21 16:41:04
My 80% left side of face is reddish, I consulted with a dermatologist and she told me that it is port vine stain. It causes a little burning sensation when that portion of skin exposes to sunlight and sometimes when I wake up. Also, I feel irritation in the left side eye. Can someone please suggest me if this can be cured ? Thanks in advance.
