I'd call his/her pediatrician and see if you can get a prescription for nystatin cream. They may want you to come in to verify it is yeast infection. Also, fyi that yeast infections are common in kids that are on antibiotics even if the antibiotics are given correctly. Eating yogurt also helps with yeast infection because it restores some of the bacteria that antibiotics kill.

You ve taken 2 erythromycin for tooth infection face still swollen?
Two erythromycin are not typically sufficient to knock down a dental infection. A course of several days is usually prescribed. Unless you are allergic to penicillin and clyndamycin, erythromycin is not the most effective antibiotic to take for dental infection.This is important: Taking a shorter course of antibiotics than recommended is very dangerous. It is possible to develop something called a "super infection". This is where the most resistant bacteria survive and cause a rebound of the original infection. Only this time, the antibiotic is no longer effective in fighting the infection. Take a complete regimen of a properly prescribed antibiotic even if you start to feel better before all the antibiotic is gone.
How can one be antibiotic resistant?
People do not develop a resistance to antibiotics, instead bacteria in the body resist the effects of the antibiotic. The bacteria changes somehow and instead of the antibiotic eliminating it, the bacteria survives and continues to cause harm and infection. Some bacteria neutralizes the antibiotic, others fight and flush out the antibiotic, and the others modify where the antibiotic goes.

Diverticulitis is manifested with a steady ache in the left lower quadrant of abdomen with possible eradication on the back. Temperature is not usual.
