Hi,

I understand your concern.

Antibiotics you used for UTI are causing alternation in the intestinal flora. This is clinically expressed by stomach cramps and wind. Taking probiotics can help.
If not, anti-fungal treatment orally should be prescribed by your doctor.

Burning skin with blotchy red patches on the face, hands and legs are should be further investigated:
- if started after the use of antibiotics for UTI, it might be an allergic reaction to these antibiotics
- if you had prior to use of antibiotics, then, a close evaluation of the skin surface changes by dermatologist is required first before admitting it's anxiety related.

So, have your skin checked by dermatologist and keep good hygiene.

Hope this helps.
