Many patients worry that rosacea will cause skin cancer or that it appears as a precursor to the disease. The two may appear linked because many people who suffer from rosacea have fair skin-also a risk factor for skin cancer. In addition, rosacea sufferers often react to sun exposure. However, rosacea and skin cancer are not linked conditions. While the two are unrelated, it is possible for a person who suffers from rosacea to develop skin cancer. It is still crucial to check your skin routinely for any irregular moles.
