Antibiotics are used for various skin conditions caused by bacterial infections. These infections can range from minor issues like acne to more serious conditions like cellulitis or impetigo. Antibiotics work by killing or inhibiting the growth of bacteria, helping to clear up the infection and reduce inflammation.
It’s important to use antibiotics as directed by a healthcare professional to ensure effectiveness and minimize the risk of antibiotic resistance. Overuse or misuse of antibiotics can lead to the development of resistant bacteria, making infections harder to treat in the future.
