I dont think you have been mis-diagnosed , however it is likely that the infection is increasing and the micro organism is not responding to azithromycin, rather you may need to change your antibiotics. Please go to the doctor again as you will need to change your antibiotics and may even need a surgical drainage of the infection (pus). Please do not delay! Thanks
