How to effectively treat strawberry nose

In terms of treatment, it is important to avoid over-cleansing the skin, which may damage the skin's natural protective barrier. Strengthen moisturization and hydration, practice physical sun protection, and avoid adverse stimuli such as extreme heat, extreme cold, or excessive mental stress. Alcohol consumption should be avoided, and spicy foods should be strictly prohibited. When necessary, appropriate local cold compresses may help relieve discomfort.

For rosacea (commonly referred to as strawberry nose), topical medications can be used appropriately, including fusidic acid and 1% clindamycin, which are effective for treating papules and pustular lesions. Topical metronidazole helps combat Demodex folliculorum mites and has certain therapeutic effects on moderate to severe rosacea.

Strawberry nose, also known as rosacea, typically occurs in individuals with oily skin. Due to excessive sebum production from sebaceous glands on the nose, and because sebaceous glands share an opening with hair follicles, increased secretion causes enlarged pores. These enlarged pores become filled with keratin; over time, the oil oxidizes, hardens, and turns black, resulting in blackheads on the nose.

In daily life, avoid consuming spicy and irritating foods, as they can exacerbate sebum secretion and worsen blackheads. Additionally, skincare products containing fruit acids or salicylic acid can be chosen, as they may help minimize pore appearance to some extent. We hope this information is helpful to you.
