I am now at month 2 post fue. I noticed a few weeks ago that my recipent area was becoming tender, pimples and redness started forming my DR prescribed a (Z pack) Azithromycin 250 mg for 5 days. I finished the prescription and it seemed better but a few days later it seemed to come back. I was prescribed another round of Azithromycin. I plan on seeing a dermatologist on Monday. Did i damage my grafts?
