Cheek redness
Hi ,
I have cheek redness whenever I step outside or have driven for a while in the sun .
I have been using sunscreen regularly . I feel have got sunburn n cheek irritation due to sterilise creme applied . Now I can feel my cheek is slight irritated n have burning sensation on n off . After taking bath also some peeling can be seen . I haven't been applying any cosmetics as I want the skin yo heal . Visited few dermatologist who told me to wait it out .
Are there any remedies to take care of the redness ? Meanwhile I only apply photostable sunscreen . Nothing else to minimise skin irritation.
Thanks

It may be rosacea which is due to increased flushing of skin. It is stimulated by sun, spices, hot, chocolates and tea or caffeine.
