Secondary Infection from antibotics?

I was recently on antibotics for a kidney infection trimoptin( doc thought it was a UTI) so those tablets didnt work because it was a kidney infection & i was then on augmentin..Because i suffer of recurrent infections (UTI's) he prescribed me a 6month course of macrodantin i had just started them when i finished my augmentin for two days and i started to feel very sore down below like someone had kicked me!! The next day there was ball like bumps under the skin around my vagina lips and one on my anus so back to the doctor i went and he gived me flucloxacillin & an antibotic cream said it was a bacteria infection from been on antibotics... So that was a week ago i have todays tablets left and tommorrow but i still have the lumps not so much painful anymore only a few went down in size the one on my anus is gone...how long more should i give for these to clear up? really really annoying me please help!!!

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Your general weakness, feeling sore and down and ball like bumps under the skin around vagina lips and anus, all these problems can be because of Augmentin. Consult your treating doctor.
But what i felt is , its nothing serious all the problems will come down slowly. And as you told you have chronic UTI , Macrodantin for few months is the treatment for it.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
