Some can.

-----------------

Yes, unless the infection is antibiotic resistant (e.g. MRSA), a bacterial infection can be treated very effectively with antibiotics.

Where there is resistance to antibiotics, the older sulfonamide drugs will interfere with the bacterial cell division, slowing their growth rate giving the body's immune system time and a chance to cure the infection naturally.

Finally, your body's immune system is curing bacterial infections all the time, it is only when this is overwhelmed that we need to help it.
