Hi, as you describe it appears that you have the side effect of the azithromycin, and had secondary infection, which is continuing. if you stop the medicine at that time and used the drugs to controle the infection, you would have been comfertable then it self.
I to my patient with such infection, prescribe ofloxacin, ornidazole, ranitidine, and injection amikacin for 5 days. Thank you.
