Hi,
You must have developed steroid induced dermatitis and steroid induced acne.
If I am not wrong, closol -g cream contains clobetasol and it seems to me the root cause.
You must stop using it and avoid sun exposure as far as possible. Azithromycin can be continued.
I suggest you to take opinion of one more dermatologist.
