Question

I've been dealing with this stubborn acne on the back of my head for a while now. I tried taking Cifran for a month and then switched to Droxyl, using beta gel at the same time, but nothing seems to be working. The acne is even spreading to my forehead, and my skin is turning red. What could be going wrong, and what should I do next?
