-Your skin allergy lasted long, so your skin barrier was already weak.
The steroid cream calmed the rash but made the skin more sensitive and thin.
When you re-applied Kumkumadi Tailam, your skin—now sensitized—reacted strongly, causing redness and swelling (contact dermatitis).
Antibiotics helped because there was secondary infection, not because the oil suited you.
-Kumkumadi is too strong for inflamed or post-steroid skin
Certain foods likely kept Pitta/inflammation high
Same product that once suited you can later cause allergy
-For now: avoid oils on face, keep skincare minimal, and only reintroduce products after weeks of calm skin—with patch testing.
