I finaly went to the dermatologist about it and she says I have rosacea. I also have the small purple veins on my cheeks. She put me on topical metronidazole cream, which hasn't helped with the bumps. I was just wondering if anyone else has had these bumbs that don't go away, and if so, what treatments worked well for you? I have another appointment with my dermatologist coming up and I would like to know about some treatments that have worked for others for these bumps to talk about with her. Thank.

Papules?
This is the part of rosacea that can be mistaken for acne - those lumps and bumps that look like teenage acne, but are actually rosacea lesions. These symptoms can often be the easiest part of rosacea to treat. Drop in here for more information.

Papules?
by Blueberry on Thu Nov 05, 2009 5:18 am
I just got diagnosed with rosacea. My main concern is these small hard flesh and pink and red colored bumps on my nose that never go away. I have had them for a few years now, and more and more keep popping up. It's so frusterating and embarrassing! I finaly went to the dermatologist about it and she says I have rosacea. I also have the small purple veins on my cheeks. She put me on topical metronidazole cream, which hasn't helped with the bumps. I was just wondering if anyone else has had these bumbs that don't go away, and if so, what treatments worked well for you? I have another appointment with my dermatologist coming up and I would like to know about some treatments that have worked for others for these bumps to talk about with her. Thank.
