Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might be suffering from seborrheic dermatitis.
The area between eyebrow and face area is rich in sebaceous glands.
These glands get infected and lead to rashes.
Its good that you are using hydrocortisone,
But this is a steroid and cannot be used for long.
You can use another anti inflammatory cream like erycin cream.
This will give you relief.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
