Suggest Treatment For Skin Infection On Face

I have what is thought to be a fungal infection on my face - I have had it since the beginning of February. Am trying hydrocortisone cream (7 days at a time) + miconazole (separate creams). It doesn t seem to improve. I am also following a yeast free diet. Don t like using the hydrocortisone cream as it seems to come back worse after I stop using it each time, hence I am beginning to think it will never go. Do you have any suggestions?

For skin infection on your face first of all you have to use some antibiotic preferably cap doxycycline 100 mg twice daily after meals for at-least 10 days with tab levocetrizine twice daily after meals if itching is there with cap omez or tab rantac twice daily empty stomach. Also take cap metilda-forte or cap zevit once daily preferably in afternoon with tab fluconazole 150 mg once daily at night. Use ketoconazole cream or betnovate cream for local application. Don't worry much you will get the results this time.
