What is rosacea and what causes rosacea
By rosacea blood vessels in the skin are cronically widened, and this condition causes inflammation, sometimes infection and other complications. The symptoms often begin early in life, but worsen gradually to get distinct or sometimes serious after the age of 50.
The face is most often affected by the condition.
THE SYMPTOMS OF ROSACEA
By rosacea there are red areas in the skin. In these areas the small vessels have been dilated. Some of these areas are permanently red. Othera areas are red in periods or flush red upon any external or internal stimulus.
There will also be individual larger vessels that are distinctly dilated and visible.
These basic symptoms will be complicated by inflammation, giving red fluid-filled spots and small soars.
Infection can further complicate the condition. This will worsen the inflammation and give pustules filled with pus, pimples and greater soars.
Later on the condition can give swelling, lumps in the skin, widened hair follicles, dry skin and scaling. Symptimes eye complictions also occur.
THE CAUSES AND MECHANISMS OF ROSACEA
The basic mechanism behind rosacea seem to be an axaggerated tendency for the blood vessels in the skin to react upon stimuli by widening, seen as flushing. After some time the dilation gets permanent and this permanent dilation will later cause inflammation and the other symptoms.
THE TREATMENT OF ROSACEA
Traditional medicine does not have any treatment for the basic processes of rosacea, for example the widening of blood vessels.
It is possible to remove dilated blood vessels or skin irregularities with laser that warms up and destroys these abnormal structures.
Rosacea complicated by infection can be treated with topical or oral antibiotics, for example tetracycline, minocycline, erythromycin, and doxycycline.
By pimple formation, you can also use rinsing skin cleansers in the same way as by acne.
You can find several althernative medicines against rosacea, mostly topical creams, containing natural oils, herbal extracts, vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. These ingredients alleviate inflammation and stimulate skin healing. They may also contain mild antiseptic agents to prevent or treat infection.
About Chamomile and especially german chamomile - Matricaria recutita
Chamomile is a common name for many daisy-like plants, for example:
Matricaria recutita (syn. M. chamomilla),
German or blue chamomile, commonly used in tea
Anthemis nobilis (syn. Chamaemelum nobile), Roman chamomile, the "lawn"
chamomile
And to some extent other Anthemis species, such as:
Anthemis arvensis, corn or scentless chamomile
Anthemis cotula, stinking chamomile or dog-fennel
Anthemis tinctoria, yellow chamomile or golden marguerite
Ormenis multicaulis, Moroccan chamomile
Eriocephalus punctulatus, Cape chamomile
Matricaria discoidea, wild chamomile or pineapple weed
The most commonly used for tea and medical purposes is German Chamomile (Matricaria recutita), also spelled just Camomile. It is an annual plant of the sunflower family Asteraceae. Synonyms are: Chamomilla chamomilla, Chamomilla recutita (accepted name according to the Flora Europaea), Matricaria chamomilla, and Matricaria suaveolens.
The information below is
valid for German chamomile and can be more or less valid also for other species
called chamomile.
Botannical facts
It usually grows near populated areas all over Europe and temperate Asia. It is widely introduced in temperate North America and Australia. As the seeds need open soil to survive, it often grows near roads, around landfills and in cultivated fields as a weed.
Active ingredients and general effects
The active ingredients are essential oils, notably chamazulene, flavonoids and coumarin. The primary active ingredient of the essential oil from German Chamomile is bisabolol.
A core effect of chamomile is counteraction of growth of bacteria and fungi and toxicity to some parasites, for example mites. This anti-microbial action is the base of many of the uses of the herb. Other core effects seem to be a counter-inflammatory action and stimulation of wound healing.
These core effects are the basis for the specific uses of chamomile.
Medical uses
German Chamomile is used medicinally against sore stomach and irritable bowel
syndrome.
It is used as a gentle sleep aid.
It is also used as a mouthwash against oral mucositis, that is infection or inflammation inside the mouth.
It has ability to kill certain mites, such as Psoroptes cuniculi.
It is used on the skin to make the environment hostile to microbes, fungi and mites and therefore used to treat or prevent infections in the skin.
It is used to alleviate inflammations in the skin and accelerate healing of skin sores.
The preventive effect of skin infections and the skin healing stimulation of chamomile is utilized by diseases like eczema and psoriasis to prevent and help heal complications like infection and sores.
Chamomile is used as eye wash to prevent and help heal superficial infections and alleviate inflammation in the eyes and eye lids.
There are some scientific suggestions that chamomile may be useful by diseases like cardiovascular conditions, common cold, diarrhoea in children, gastrointestinal conditions, hemorrhagic cystitis (bladder irritation with bleeding), hemorrhoids, infantile colic, mouth infection and mouth inflammation from cancer treatment, and vaginal inflammation
Chamomile is also used cosmetically, primarily to make a rinse for blonde hair.
How to use chamomile
Chamomile can be taken as a herbal tea, two teaspoons of dried flower per cup of tea.
For a sore stomach, some recommend
taking a cup every morning without food for two to three months.

The native range extends across the Canary Islands, North and East Africa, south Europe and the Mediterranean, Arabia, and India.
