Is the opening of an antibiotic to relieve your symptoms and procure rid of the cramp?

Or is that not the "goal" of an antibiotic? I'm asking because some antibiotics take awhile to work and you can be taking the tablets but still in affliction.Is the opening of an antibiotic to relieve your symptoms and procure rid of the cramp?
Antibiotics only exterminate bacteria, they do nil else unless it is specified on the packet.
Analgesics remedy pain as do some anti-inflamatories for other reason.
The job of antibiotics is to snuff the bacteria specifically the cause of the infection, which is cause the symptoms/pain.
The job of the antibiotic is to catch rid of infection...bacterial infection...you can still be in throbbing until they start to work.
Antibiotics are used to treat infections, and are not painkillers. If the pain is due to an infection, eventually they will work on the affliction because they will be eliminating the infection. However, if it involves throbbing & infection, you'd need a analgesic and an antibiotic.
