What is Tuberculosis?

Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It commonly affects the lungs, known as Pulmonary Tuberculosis, but may also spread to the lymph nodes, bones, brain, kidneys, spine, and other organs.

TB spreads through the air when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or speaks. Individuals with weak immunity, poor nutrition, diabetes, smoking habits, or prolonged exposure to infected individuals are at a higher risk of developing tuberculosis.

Common symptoms of TB include:

• Persistent cough lasting more than 2 weeks
• Fever and night sweats
• Weight loss
• Fatigue and weakness
• Chest pain
• Blood in sputum
• Loss of appetite
• Breathlessness

Early diagnosis and proper treatment are essential to prevent serious complications and spread of infection.

Types of Tuberculosis

Pulmonary Tuberculosis

This is the most common form of TB that affects the lungs. Patients often experience chronic cough, sputum production, chest pain, and breathing difficulties.

Extra-Pulmonary Tuberculosis

In this condition, TB affects organs other than the lungs such as lymph nodes, bones, kidneys, abdomen, spine, or brain.

Latent Tuberculosis

In latent TB, the bacteria remain inactive inside the body without causing symptoms. However, the infection can become active later if immunity weakens.

Active Tuberculosis

Active TB causes symptoms and can spread from one person to another. Immediate medical treatment is required to control infection and prevent complications.

MDR-TB (Multi-Drug Resistant Tuberculosis)

This is a more severe form of TB where bacteria become resistant to commonly used TB medicines, requiring specialized treatment protocols.

XDR-TB (Extensively Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis)

XDR-TB is a highly resistant form of tuberculosis that requires advanced treatment, close monitoring, and long-term medical management.

At Shail Care Pulmo Wellness (Lung, Allergy & Breath Clinic), Dr. Shailly provides expert care for all forms of tuberculosis with advanced evaluation and personalized treatment strategies.

• Weak immune system
