[ELI5] Antibiotic resistance

157 viewsBiologyOther

So I know if you take antibiotics, and you stop once you feel better, can cause the infections to come back even worse and you might possibly develop a antibiotic resistance but what’s the difference between that and finishing your medication? For example, my antibiotics I take 2 a day for 7 days. How does finishing my medication not cause a resistance?

Imagine you are super man and the sun heals you. You are weak and injured fighting a foe. You healed a little in the sun but went to fight before you were ready. The foe as time progressed got smarter and stronger and now takes more energy or help to defeat him.
