a doctor wouldn't give antibiotics for a virus.haha he spent most of the time tuning his guitar
and his socks were red thats all i bothered with him
a lot of people ask for antiobiotics when they go to the doctors even though they have a virus
results in overuse of antiobiotics which has given bacteria immunity
doctors rarely see self diagnosis as anything other than the result of a brief stint on google.
if they believed every self diagnosis then half the population would be getting chemotherapy for cancer.
these are probably the same people who, if they DO need antibiotics, stop taking them after the symptoms cease, rather than simply continuing until the full course is taken. Stopping halfway through increases the chances of producing a resistant strain.
