Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist (DM). I think antibiotics which you have taken for fever has either caused inflammation in food pipe or stomacch thats why there is pain after takin meals. For this what you should do is take a proton pump inhibitor along with a prokinetic agent.
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. If you have any further query I will be happy to answer that too. Remain in touch and get-well soon.
