: Possibly, bacteria is localizing. I would continue with the drug regimen, until complete. Then make a final observation. Seek attention if still problematic.

Probably due to the streptococcus bacteria. Should heal as you continue to take the full course ofnyour medication. If concerned, see your prescribing Physician.
