Hello,
As per your history you can apply clindamycin or hydrocortisone ointment locally. Wash your face using antimicrobial soap. Keep it dry and avoid harsh chemicals on skin. If you do not get relief then i will advise you to consult a dermatologist. He may procure complete hemogram and some other blood investigations. Till then keep your self hydrated. Eat healthy diet. Avoid oily and junk foods. Do regular exercise.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
