Hello,
Your concern may be Seborrheic dermatitis. Stop using Clonate cream, it is a medicated steroid. You can try Scalpe lotion, apply once daily, 10 minutes before bath and wash off with cool water.
Meanwhile, have a second opinion with a dermatologist nearby you for a physical examination. This may help you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sandeep Golla
