      If you have an infection, totally appropriate. The issue is that a good amount of doctors will prescribe antibiotics just to make it seem like they’re doing something for you. While that effect of being treated will help through the placebo effect, the use of antibiotics when it isn’t necessary reduces the amount of time we collectively have for antibiotics to be effective.

      Link to a study about it
