I'm really worried about this itching issue on my leg. There was this small red patch at the start that was itching a lot, and now there's even some blood. We did see a doctor, but it doesnt seem to be getting any better. Can you help me figure out what to do for proper treatment?

I got the chickenpox virus back in 2016, and since then, I've been using Dermadew Lite soap. I'm kind of worried about whether it's okay to use it every day. I'm just curious if using it regularly is safe or if there are any side effects I should know about. It only seems to be available at pharmacies, so it feels like a medicated soap. Could you give me some advice on whether I should keep using it or not?
