welcome to HealthcareMagic
it seems you have consulted physician already and following his advice
amoxycillin dose that you have mentioned is not sufficient it seems
it should be taken 8 hourly
the cause of pleurisy must be diagnosed .tuberculosis should be ruled out .
regarding bruise and if it is not due to any injury you should immediately consult physician to find cause
allergy and hematological cause should be excluded
I find this answer helpful
