HI
Well come to HCM
I 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.
