You keep posting and I keep answering so read this:

I know you have posted before about this and the only thing I can suggest is lay off the spicy food and you won't get a red nose. Some things we have to give up for appearance sake. Of course, you may realize down the line that it really doesn't matter much as long as you enjoy spicy food and put up with the red nose.

Its like the guy who went to the doctor and said 'doc when I lift my arm like this (he lifts his arm up) it hurts. So the doc says, 'well don't lift it up and it won't hurt !'.

Well then, jeffjoe, you should have said it was just an example. I wasn't trying to be smart (maybe humerous). My reply still stands, then you have to rule out all spicy foods to see if the red nose goes away. That is what I meant !

What do you expect us to say. We don't diagnose here, we can only read between the lines and suggest an alternative approach to a problem.

So either read it right or get a new life for heavens sake !

You could have high blood pressure, a high metabolism or some people just can't eat certain foods without getting a reaction.

What kind of answer were you expecting after posting, what the same post, three times

Actually, Tickle did have one possible cause of red nose jeffjoe.

Here are 33 more.

I was thinking maybe some form of rosacea. But there are many possible causes from thyroid disorder to spicy food, to allergies.

Good one Jake ! Although rosacea would be ongoing. I never would have thought of some of those causes, who would have ? Thyroid, yes, possibility (I always go for most medical ones). Of course, allergies, but the OP wasn't all that helpful in his question to us. So who knows ?
