(i) Cold is commonly caused by virus while soar throat can be due to bacterial infection or allergy.
(ii) Antibiotics act on bacteria and kill them by inhibiting their metabolic reactions (e.g. cell wall formation, ribosome functioning).
Yes, the doctor can continue the antibiotic for 3-4 days more because bacterial sore throat takes about 10 days to heal.
