I AM 19 YEARS OLD & I'M PATIENT OF TB THE MONTH OF 40 DAYS SO HOW CAN RECOVER MY CHEST TB WHEN MY COUGH IS TOO HIGH SO GOING PAIN IS MY FULL BODY
Female | 19
Chest TB is caused by bacteria that infect the lungs, leading to severe coughing and body pain. Recovery usually takes a few months with proper medication. It's crucial to take the medicines prescribed by your doctor every day for at least 6 months. Ensure you rest, eat well, and avoid close contact with others as TB is contagious. For the best care, please visit a pulmonologist.

It's important to inform your healthcare provider about any medications you're taking, especially antibiotics like flucloxacillin and ampicillin, as they may affect the results of your chest scan. Your doctor will advise you on whether it's safe to proceed with the scan while on these medications, considering your current health condition. Always follow your doctor's guidance regarding medical procedures.

Female | 23
It sounds like you're experiencing significant distress both mentally and physically. Since you're facing shortness of breath and dizziness along with mental health struggles, it's essential to seek medical help promptly. Anxiety or any cold-like respiratory virus might be causing these symptoms. It is imperative to take care of yourself. You can try breathing exercises, take a rest, and talk to someone. If you are still not feeling well, make sure you reach out to our nearest pulmonologist or psychiatrist for a counseling session.

আমার ছেলের কাশী কিছুতেই সারছে না, কখনও বেশি হয়, কখনও আবার একদম বন্ধ হয়ে যায়, প্রায় 1 বছর ধরে হচ্ছে, চেস্ট x Ray করা হয়েছে, কোনো প্রবলেম নেই। আবহাওয়া খারাপ হলে কাশী বাড়ে আবার কমে যায়। অন্য কোনো প্রবলেম নেই। খেলাধুলা করলে বা সাইকেল চালালে কাশী একদম হয় না। বসে থাকলে কখনও কখনও হয়।

It sounds like your son's cough is persistent and fluctuates in intensity, regardless of a chest x-ray showing no issues. Weather changes seem to affect it, with worsening during bad weather. Surprisingly, no coughing during physical activities like sports or cycling, but sometimes occurs when sitting. It might be worth exploring further with a pulmonologist to understand the underlying cause.

I want to know about the TB
Female | 55
TB, a common shorthand term for tuberculosis, is a life-threatening disease caused by bacteria that mainly affect the lungs. Humans with TB might experience, amongst others, the following peculiar signs: prolonged cough, chest pain, losing weight, and fatigue. The transmission occurs when a TB patient coughs or sneezes with a built-in airway and thus spreads the bacteria from person to person.
