I know. I have a red nose. I will be right in line for playing the part of Santa’s Reindeer. The only thing I’ve found for that is the Benadryl tablet and Benadryl gel to rub on your face. It helps the burning and stinging after a few minutes.

If I could eliminate the redness I would be very happy.

I agree-it doesn’t kill the yeast-I texted my dermatologist about Metronidazole and waiting for his response.

Don’t kill the yeast. Just helps with the redness and inflammation, which the Benadryl pill and gel helps more than metronidazole. Epsom salts backing soda and sea salt compresses help too.
