Please stop Betnovate C as soon as possible. It's a strong steroid and can cause significant side effects specially in such a young child & in such an sensitive area.
About growth of nail. It will take months. Around 3-4months if it's a hand nail & 6 months if it's a toe nail.

Meet me. We will remove it. Acne or pimples. Due to hormonal changes. Oily skin causes it. Common in adolescent age. May occur in adults also. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne. So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Dear Lybrate
you can clean it with betadine 2 to 3 times a day. Try to wear comfortable foot wears. If it was on road then get one tetnus injection if not taken recently.
