Hard to know: Viral infection would not respond to antibiotic and sx can persist for up to 14 days (or more in cases of "double infection"). A physician needs to take a detailed account of the symptoms, timing and medical history and perform an exam to begin to differentiate causes of upper airway disease. CDC is currently raising awareness about antibiotic stewardship, check it out: http://tinyurl.com/zc374ut
