Will The Infection In The Eyelid Be Cured Without The Antibiotics?

I have an infection in the soft tissue around the top of my eyelid and I have been prescriped flucloxacillin by my gp. I am a bit worried about taking it. I have never been allergic to penicillin but I have had anaphalactic shock reaction to NSAIDS and also milder reactions to metrodisanol and another antibiotic. Please advise. Will it get better without the antibiotics

if you have history os sensitivity to penicillin, then you can take ofloxacin 400mg two times daily and take simple paracetamol. any way you have not been prescribed metronedazol.whenever you are prescribed some medicine you should give your history of allergy to drugs
