What are the symptoms of rosacea?

It often occurs in middle-aged people, mainly in the middle of the face, the tip of the nose and the alar part, and can also extend to the cheeks, jaw and forehead. Mild patients only have telangiectasia, local skin flushing and more oil. Then red papules and pustules may appear.
