Dear madam i can understand your concern.
let me make it clear to you,in case of diabetes we will advise patients to keep there sugar under control for quick healing of wound.
i guess you are not diabetic so this will not be applicable for you.
usually some antibiotics will cause low sugar,nothing to feel bad it will settle in no time
