Hi
Welcome to XXXXXXX
No, antibiotics are not known to do that, even when taken in the long term.
In fact they are given for treatment of burning due to change of antibiotics may be needed.
Please discuss the issue with your doctor and take a decision.
Hope this helps. Please write back for doubts if any.
Get well soon.
Best Regards
DR GS
