What is Cross Resistance

"Doctor this antibiotic is not working on me and doctor told that infection has produced resistance". It is a pretty common and familiar case as bacteria are producing resistance to different antibiotic agents. Cross resistance is a phenomenon is which bacteria when exposed to an antibiotic produce resistance to that antibiotic as well as to all related antibiotics too. In most of the cases specific bacteria are killed by specific antibiotics and if they produced cross resistance it will create real problems for patient as well as physician. Bacteria consist of a single cell. They  lack brain and their whole life is controlled by DNA transcription and translation but just see how cleverly and how safely they have improved their existence.
In our daily life, we face many hurdles and problems. Somehow we manage to solve the problem and soon we forgot about it. When most of problems occurring in our routine life are same and repeated, why not we make ourselves resistant to these problem? Simply by planning and foreseeing the expected problems, we can avoid many of them in life. If anyone identifies a problem and solve it, he should learn lesson from it. He should store it in his memory and use it to solve the problem if reoccurs and also apply it for all other related problems. This require active participation, keen observation and courage. So be courageous, be social and do not shy to help others. This will make you a person well resistant to problems.
But if we are able to identify interlinked problems and the link between them, than we will be learning many lessons from one problem and this Cross Resistance will made us a man who can stand after a fall and than never fell again.
