[|Human|] I had flap surgery today & took 4 clindamycin 1 hr before surgery &he wanted me to take it 10 more days but since I have had bad reaction from the cream that I had to use vaginaly I didnt want to take it he said it was ok since I took the 4 before surgery. Hope that is ok I dont want to get a infection. He is a excellent dentist I went to for 40 years . What do you think
[|AI|]  Hello, I understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query. In my opinion you should take other antimicrobial agent if you are allergic to the previous one. Taking the agent for at least two days after surgery will protect you from infection. Though the dentist is the good doctor, but infection chances never be ignored even with good doctor. Maintaining good oral hygiene can still help you further in prevention of infections. You can use chlorhexidine mouthwash for cleaning if mouthed. It helps reduce mouth wash. I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor.  Thank you.
