Son takes antibiotics, can he go for swimming lessons?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually : As long as the kid is feeling well enough to swim, there is no reason swimming would be bad for them.There are a few abx that encourage you to avoid intense sun exposure while they are on med, that is a separate issue.
