I'm dealing with this fungal infection for around 6 months now. I tried using dermiford k5 cream, but it only seems to help for a little while before the infection comes back. Im really concerned and a bit frustrated. What do you think I should do next?

I've been noticing these small lumps on my cheekbone, right under my eye. They tend to swell up by themselves and then the swelling goes down after a few days, but then they come back after about a month. It's like a recurring cycle and I'm starting to get scars from them. Should I be worried about these lumps? What could be causing this?
