Possible early rhinophyma? Biopsy confirmed phymatous changes. Second opinion said not rhinophyma but inflammatory rosacea.

Asked By:Pink Nose in Ireland, IE

Only on nose which is now swelling at the tip badly, is flushing, inflamed, very oily, has blackheads & many broken veins. Rest of my face is clear. In perimenopause & symptoms have gotten dramatically worse in past year. What treatment is recommended for the oiliness, pore reduction, inflammation, redness and burning painful swelling. It is deforming the tip of my nose. Meds? Laser? IPL? Would manual lymph drainage help decrease the now permanently swollen tip?
