Is there a mechanical way to fight infections?

Like tiny machines that can fight bacteria vs antibiotics ?

Update:

Or tricking bacteria or something like that?

    I had a brief flash of cartoon white blood cells fighting off bacteria with teenie tiny swords lol. No there is nothing like this.

    Your body and its internal processes are the most efficient infection-fighting machine there is.

    But only if you follow a diet and lifestyle that supports optimum strength of your body, and its internal processes.

    For those who aren't interested in that, science is working on a highly profitable, patented method to achieve what your body was designed to do naturally.

    One of the oldest methods of fighting infection is mechanical - cleaning.

    Yep, every time you wash you are mechanically fighting disease.

    Science is working on it. Look up Nanobots.
