Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain development of rashes and itching all over the face seems to be most probably due to allergic reaction and can be due to causes like any food or medication while can also be due to Contact Dematitis caused due to allergic reaction to any skin cosmetic, soap, detergent etc..

As far as Clinmiskin is concerned, it is an antibiotic ointment and will not help in resolving allergic reaction while fourts B is also a nutritional supplement and has not effect in treated your symptoms..

I would suggest you to consult an Allergist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like allergic tests like Patch test, RAST test, food challenge test etc can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

The tests will help in ruling out the exact cause of the allergen and once you know the cause of the allergic reaction you can avoid exposure to it to prevent allergy attack..

The allergist can advise to oral anti allergics as well as injectable steroids for relief..

As of now you can take anti-allergics like Levocetrizine, Allegra to control the itching and swelling..
Do cool compresses..
Application of calamine lotion can help in soothing the skin..

You can also be instilled an Immunotherapy that will help in reducing the severity and frequency of allergic attack..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
