I am fairly new to this country.

2 what king of antibiotics can I take?

Brief Answer:
Azithromycin and metronidazole will help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
USG stands for ultrasonography. It will help in confirming that the abortion is complete. The foul smell suggests a vaginal infection which usually needs antibiotics like Azithromycin and metronidazole. You can get these antibiotics on prescription.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Regards.
