I've been using Betnovate cream for nearly two weeks, and instead of improving, the pimples and marks on my face have gotten much worse. I don't usually have acne, but I do have some pimple marks on my face, and my skin is really sensitive and oily. Could this cream be making things worse? What should I do now?

I've been dealing with white, dry patches around my groin area, including on the scrotum and penis. I was diagnosed with a fungal infection a few months ago and took medication which cleared up the infection, but the dryness and skin flaking haven't gone away. Any ideas on what might be causing this or how I can treat it? I'm kind of worried about it.
