[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor. I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint in case if you have got infection at the site of stitches you need to take a combination of oral and topical antibiotics and steroids for faster relief from the infection and anti-inflammatory painkillers to relieve the pain. I would suggest you to continue taking the antibiotics as advised and along with it, you can start taking anti-inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen. You can also apply a combination of steroid and antibiotic ointment over the sutures. Clean the area twice a day with antiseptic solution before you apply the ointments. You can also be advised injectable antibiotics for faster resolution. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor.
