Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms can be related to an allergic reaction to the antibiotic flucloxacillin.
I suggest to use an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily.
I also suggest using Betametasone cream for local application.
You should consult your doctor about an alternativce antibiotic.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
