Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
The drug of choice for streptococcus is penicillin.
Since you have gram+ve , gram -ve, pseudomonas infection .
So a broad spectrum antibiotics will suit .
You have also to take metronidazole .
All these drugs are to be taken after the advice of your treating doctor as self medication in this case is not good.
Good luck.
