I suffer rosacea which is also allergy/inflammation/stress mediated. When I get flares I use telfast, clearasil face wash, then splash with lots of cold water, then use savlon, savlon heals and calms.

I've wondered if it is stress related. I've been under a fair bit of it for various reasons.

Can be weather or over heating and dryness from keeping warm as well.

I have rosacea too, I haven’t tried savlon but I will now, thanks for the tip. I usually just put up with it until it is bad, then use doxycycline.

I might have to see if it helps me too. Been suffering lately.
