I don’t have insurance and am looking for a home remedy or treatment for rosacea. I have redness and a little swelling on my nose and cheeks close to my nose. Please help.

It sucks not to have insurance
Perhaps a pharmacist could recommend something over-the-counter?
I hope I’ve helped
Local drugs for controlling Rosacea can be gels, crèmes, solutions and ointments containing Metronidazole, sulfur, Azelaic acid and Sulfacetamide, all approved substances. Topical antibiotics used as well in treating Rosacea are Clyndamicin and Erythromycin.
Avoid sun exposure. Use sunscreen every day.
Avoid prolonged exertion in hot weather.
Try to reduce stress. Try deep breathing, yoga, or other relaxation techniques.
Limit spicy foods, alcohol, and hot beverages.
Triggers vary from person to person. Other triggers may include wind, hot baths, cold weather, specific skin products, exercise, or other factors.
GOOD LUCK
