Hello dear

Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query in details .

* Nothing to get checked further , this is due to side effect of antibiotic
affecting gut flora mechanics ; will be settled once the medicine is
stopped .

Wishing you fine recovery .
Feel free to ask any further doubts .
