Can overuse of antibiotics cause recurrence of infection? My urethral discharge suggests growth of staphylococcus aureus. Linezolid was sensitive.. Doctor suggests me for 5 days.. But from pharmacy they gave me for 6 days.. In between those 5 days.. I was fine.. No pain.. But on 6th day pain came back again...
