Staph infection is back

Question

Asked for Female, 22 Years

I went to the doctor for a staph infection almost 2 weeks ago. A nodule came up again today. I took the antibiotics as instructed, and went about my business. After 7 days, I stopped taking them as heavily. I was taking 4 a day. But i brought it down to 1 a day. I was feeling sick from them, and they made my stomach hurt. Now I have a nodule today. Is there anyway I can just get a shot? Or will upping the meds back up fix it?
