Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Amoxicillin is the appropriate antibiotic to treat breast infection.
However, if there is breathlessness, difficulty in breathing and chest pain, then you should be prescribed antibiotics appropriate for the respiratory tract.
You should consult a physician for proper examination, investigations and treatment accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
