I have necrosis roof of mouth from dental procedure. taking amox clav 875 mg. it's very painful was admitted. is it safe to take a good quality probiotic with these antibiotics to speed healing because i haven't ate properly in month and i'm hungry?

You can take probiotic which may alleviate the chance of C. diff colitis due to prolonged antibiotics. Probiotic does not promote the healing. You do not need it for nutritional support. Your are hungry which is a good sign so you just eat whatever you like because you are still young.
