You should stop using Betamil GM cream, as prolonged use of steroid-based creams may thin the skin, leading to bleeding and further irritation. It is important to consult a doctor or dermatologist for a proper examination and, if needed, a skin scraping test to confirm the cause and start specific treatment. Until then, try not to scratch, keep the area moisturised, and use a simple moisturiser to help with itching and bleeding.
