Is it possible for antibiotics to adversely affect?

I Currently live in allergy central, OH. For the last 20 odd years, twice every year, when the temperature changes I get something that is similar to, but not quite strep. A couple years ago I was prescribed Cephalexin instead of the SMZ/TMP I usually get. It seemed to actually make me worse, and since then whenever I get sick my sinuses hurt badly and bleed profusely, which never happened before. Is it possible for an antibiotic to actually have detrimental effects (in this case, somehow damaging tissue) or is it more probable that the Cephalexin I was issued was in some way subpar, and allowed the bacteria to mutate and/or change it's attack?
Answers:
Antibiotics may cause allergic reactions, usually in combination with other factors (sunlight, diet, other medication).I wouldn't blame chronic sinus problems whenever you catch a cold to antibiotics, though. I have somewhat similar (but lighter) symptoms.My chlorine allergy clashed with swimming lessons at school, and while the sinus problems have lessened after I got rid of my tonsils (at least the infections don't last forever any more) the region still is sensitive.Nose bleed is a fairly natural phenomenon with permanently irritated mucous membrane. Irritation over a long time may lead to chronic infection.
There may be two likely couses of this. Malpractice medical care or, your own fault. Doctors prescribe a weak form of pathogens as medicine. If you took the prescribed dose as neede and failled to complete the medication the bacteria may have formed an immune resistance. This has adverce effects to your healing. They actually become stronger thus they have more effects than before.On global perspective the medicine (Vaccine) administered to stop the bird flue might actually worsen the spread since if one or two patients fail to copmlete the required medication the bacteria (influenza) might become more deadly and uneasy to stop in terms of its spread.Advise; always copmlete your medication whatsoever what.
