Solution

When you halt treatment early, you allow a small portion of bacteria to remain in your body and that bacteria has the potential to strengthen, change, and develop resistance.” So even if you're feeling better after a few days, that doesn't mean all of the bacteria which made you sick is actually gone yet.
