[|Human|] I have rosacea and its been real bad lately and its flared with numbs and real dry skin I want natural pills and skin cream what can I buy at a natural health store, the pills and creams doctors prescribe have some type of steroids and I do not like it. I live in Odessa, texas
[|AI|]  Howell come to ChatDoctorI appreciate your concern, if this is the rosacea may not need any steroid, but it can be well managed with antibiotic like Tab Doxycycline 100 mg once in day, and it needs to be taken up to 10 days, it is most advisable to keep the face clean the condition is highly related with hormone changes, and it is the self limiting condition in very rare case it requires the medication but not the steroid, so better not to take this, hope this information helps.
