Yes your doctor has done correct treatment as she would have started the antibiotic only after the culture sensitivity report,so don't worry. Follow your doctors advice and be in reggular follow up,regular dressing and maintain perineal hygeine to avoid recurrence. Take care,don't worry about pregnancy it would go fine.
