Crixan is pretty safe but betamil gm is very strong steroid so if you have been applying it for very long time then withdrawal is likely to cause side effects. That doesn't mean you do not stop this cream because continuing it will cause way more side effects.
Please consult a dermatologist to help you to withdraw this cream in such a way that it causes minimal to no side effects plus to control & treat side effects which has already occurred.

An acute case of phimosis may create problems for the person when he would want to pass urine or to perform sex, as this action may either be restricted or become troublesome.
