Uncertain: This could be a second-year used infection from using the anabiotic. This is something you can discuss with your physician

Debris: I would not be surprised if you were able to detect/taste some of the debris that sheds from the surfaces infected by the strep. Many do not but if you are sensitive enough that is possible.I would expect things to clear up gradually over the next week or two or have your doc re-evaluate you.
