Sounds like you need to see a doctor in person. This is not the forum to answer such a question. You need a details in-person examination. In some areas, antibiotics are unfortunately sold without a doctor's recommendation, which can cause widespread resistance. Generally one does not use Amoxicillin clavulanate for skin infections. Cefalexin can be used for some skin infections, but not all.
