Hi,
I am suffering from the same an antibiotic ointment has been prescribed. It is very painful and I don’t have any yellow crust just the same symptoms as yours. When did you stop the antibiotics please?

You poor thing, what a cock up

Glad you're feeling better

Oh Lokki it's horrible isn't it? For me,I made the decision after 5 days of taking them because there was zero change and the pain was worse than the original pain.but I did speak with my doc x.
Thanks Delph, I'm feeling much more human and less scary to small kids these days!

It is horrible. Mine started on last Tuesday. I am so glad I found this thread and stopped the antibiotic ointment today. Already feeling much better. It was making the situation worse. Lafyofc42, please did you do anything else to ease the symptoms?
