Suggest Remedy For Small Patch Of Red Pimple Like Fungus On Face

I have a small patch of red, pimple like fungus on my face. it starts out as small fluid filled bumps then it gets dry and crusty a few days later. I believe it is fungus because I have been using a cream that makes it better. However, it always comes back. I am on my 3rd tube. Is there anything else I can do?

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some skin lesion like dermatitis or tineasis causing this problem.
Apply triple action cream locally.
If there is tineasis or fungal infection, go for one course of oral anti-fungal medicine like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
Ok and take care.
