Hi
Thanks for choosing HCM
Looks like you are having infections and then its coming down. It doesn't seem allergic in nature. Are you in immunocompromised state? Are you a diabetic? If no then you ca take a course of anti biotics like amoxycillin for 5 days and keep your face clean by washing with glycerine. Soaps can be avoided and stop using oily moisturiser on face.
Hope this helps you
Take care
