Hello, I Got All My Wisdom Teeth Removed 6 Days

Hello,

I got all my wisdom teeth removed 6 days ago. Bottom left was impacted, the dentist said it took a lot of work so he said trauma might be higher than usual. I got antibiotics, clindamycin 300 mg, and every time I take them I feel like my throat swells up and it’s hurts to swallow. I took them day 3-5, since I couldn’t swallow pills first two days, and didn’t feel that throat swelling until the pills. I haven’t taken them today and my throat is normal again, no swelling/pain when I swallow.

I didn’t have an infection, he prescribed the pills to prevent one, an I allergic to clindamycin?
Should I tell the pharmacy to give me a different prescription or can I just not take them anymore?
Also there’s a yellow coating on my tongue and it feels smooth. Is that a concern? Is it an allergic reaction to the anyibiotics?
