Hello,
Resistance to antibiotics develops over a period of time. It depends on various factors that include dosage, time of use etc.
Because you had to use them for specific reasons as a part of targeted treatment,
Getting medical guidance and using antibiotics under medical supervision helps to prevent the development of resistance.
So, there is only a mild to moderate chance of developing resistance.
I understand your concern regarding your immunity.
Next Steps
Diet and exercise are the most important things to build immunity.
