Well if you're on antibiotics I'm assuming you have an infection. Some infections (like swimmers ear or mono) can spread very easily in water. Stay out of the water until you not only feel better, but are done with your medication. Make sure you take every pill exactly as your doctor tells you to (you'll just get sick again if you don't).
