Regarding antibiotics, if you take antibiotics it is likely that you will
get better in around five days. If you decide not to take antibiotics, the
cold will probably run its course in around five days.


I tried for about two weeks to go without antibiotics, and it was getting
worse. After about a week of amoxicillin, I'm starting to feel better.
