<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.I have developed itchy dry skin in the area from along my jawline to underneath my cheeckbones on both sides of my face. I also have a scalp infection that I did get a checkup on, and I was prescribed antibiotics , and given the instruction that if it did not heal within a week, then it may be a sign of fungal infection? Would that be linked to the irritation on my face as well? I also have a painful patch of skin on the edge of my left eye and in the corner of it as well. It has been a number of weeks now, and I dont think it has anything to do with hormones.  <response>: Welcome Thanks for the query. It is surely related to the irritation of the skin. I would suggest you should use a combination of an antifungal and steroid cream for a short while like a week twice a day. After that a long term maintenance with only topical application of the antifungal would be essential part of the treatment. In case it does not improve make sure you see a DermatologistThanks and take care
