Question

Mr Mathur recovered from cold but he still have throat infection. would the doctor continue the antibiotics further? state yes or no give reason?

Answer 1

no he suggests him to gourgel

Answer 2

Yes. Mr. Mathur will need to continue taking antibiotics.

Cold and throat infections are different.

Cold is often caused due to virus, while throat infections are often caused due to bacteria.

If his cold has cured, this means that virus has been treated.

If his throat infection is still there, then it means that he would need to continue taking antibiotics until the infection goes away.

The bacterial infection may relapse if he stops taking antibiotics before completely curing the infection.
