Explain why a doctor would prescribe medicine to someone who is in good health.

For the purpose of this explanation, let's choose scenario number 4: you got a deep cut while riding your bike last week which has now become red and swollen.

In this case, a doctor may prescribe medicine even though you are in good overall health. The redness and swelling at the site of your deep cut could be indicative of an infection. Infections can occur when bacteria enter an open wound, causing inflammation and other symptoms such as redness, swelling, and pain.

To prevent the infection from spreading and causing further complications, the doctor may prescribe antibiotics. Antibiotics help fight off the bacteria and prevent the infection from spreading to other parts of your body. Even though you may feel fine overall, the infected wound requires medical intervention to prevent further infection or complications from occurring.
