There are two reasons

  1. As you said, cache issue. You sometimes need to clear cache
  2. Maybe server cache/delayed your updates.

Browser cache you can remove from it's setting area. Google it, you will get tons of tutorials.

Reload your page two times, this clears the cache.

Or reload the page using the shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+R.

Or use an advanced theme and override the function that loads the .css file and add a "?v=1.2.3" to it, so the browser will load it as a new file.

You can also open the developer tools in Chrome (Ctrl+Shift+I), and there is a checkbox "Disable cache" in the settings.
