Symptoms should be : Be gone and infection should be gone if it was designed to take for 3 days if u still have sxs please see your doc as it could have been resistant to the med and u may need a different one.

Variable: Usually the antibiotics continue to work past the three days. Usually resolution takes 7-10 days in total.
