Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Clindamycin is the best. In fact, it is the best medication given for all kinds of inflammation and any body part can be put if there is inflammation. Kindly use that gel as prescribed. Don’t go for steroid creams and you can go for any other antibiotic creams also if you wish to change.

Hope this information helps you sort out your problems. If you feel its helpful kindly give me user thanks vote.
Happy health!
Regards,
Dr. Archana
