hi
as you are screened for infection an found some infection despite of taking ampiclox500.
it is clear ampiclox is not able to cure the infection.
i am also attending the many of this kind of patient in my clinic.
no doubt it is a good advise to shift you from ampiclox to Clavmark ( as it is superior antibiotic)
i will also suggest to send a swab for antibiotic sensitivity test.
hoping you will recover soon
