What Causes Sore Flaky Skin In Between Eyebrows?

Hi I have sore flakey skin in and between my eyebrows. The only thing that clears it is hydrocortisone cream but I am advised not to use it long term. I have tried everything over the years to stop it but it comes back in cycles of around four to five days. Can you help?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having some local skin infection like dermatitis or eczematous dermatitis.
In this condition steroid cream will help but it is advisable to get it diagnosed by dermatologist and go for proper line of treatment.
Rule out dandruff or any infection on scalp.
Ok and take care.
I find this answer helpful
