Acne rosacea is often difficult to treat because it's viewed mainly as a skin problem to be treated symptomatically. But there is an alternative perspective of the disease according to traditional Chinese medicine theory.
Far from a skin problem, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) tried to explained acne rosacea or rosacea at the root level in different perception from the Western medical treatment. They describe rosacea as a condition related to Lung and Liver function disorder. The important balance between these two organ systems has been disrupted and not functioning together in harmony.
The real cause of rosacea generally was addressed in the picture of lung function disorder caused by liver function disorder. In view of traditional Chinese medicine, all skin problems are related to the lung as well as its partner organ the Large Intestine. Then, good results come from treating the root of the cause of this condition.
