Best Answer

Penicillin is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It is not appropriate for *all* infections, as different bacteria are specific to the various infections and each one needs to be treated for that particular bacteria. Infections can range from wounds to sickness, and they start when bacteria is allowed to break through the body's protective barriers and mechanisms, either through breathing, ingesting or a break in the skin/tissue, and colonize within the body. Infections typically involve heat, swelling, pus and resistance to other remedies.
