I was prescribed dicloxacillin 1000mg per day for 3 weeks for lymphangitis on chest. it recurred within 1 week of finishing course. what should i do?

Go back to the doc: You apparently have some sort of resistant bug. You probably need to get a culture and sensitivity test to different antibiotics if it hasn't resolved. You definitely need to see a doctor.
