I've been using Betnovate cream for the last few months, maybe around 2 to 3 months, and when I stopped, I had a really bad breakout. Plus, I noticed my facial hair has increased a lot. What should I do?

I've been dealing with acne and pimples all over my face and back for a few years now. I've tried using Clinsol, but it hasn't really helped, and my skin is still super itchy. Could you suggest any creams or medicines that might work better for me?

I've been dealing with a persistent Tinea infection on different parts of my body like the inner thighs, groin, belt area, and armpits for nearly 45 months now. I tried a treatment course for a month, taking Tab Prugo 10 once daily, Cap Canditral 100 once a day, and using Ointment Propyzole at night and Ointment Sebifin during the day. I repeated this twice with an increased dosage the second time. Each time I take the medicine, the infection seems to go away for a bit but then comes back once I've finished the course. Can you suggest a more effective treatment to finally get rid of this Tinea for good?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection. Candid cream for local application is advised for 2 weeks, along with tab levocetrizine 10 mg orally,daily for 5 days is advised to the patient.
