What Are the Symptoms of Tuberculosis, and How Is It Diagnosed? - #15378
I recently heard about tuberculosis (TB) and was surprised to learn that it’s still a major infectious disease affecting millions worldwide. From what I understand, tuberculosis is caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, but what are the early signs of tuberculosis symptoms? I read that tuberculosis primarily affects the lungs, but it can also spread to other parts of the body, such as the bones, brain, and kidneys. How do doctors diagnose TB, and what tests are required to confirm the infection? One thing that concerns me is that some forms of TB are drug-resistant, making treatment more difficult. What are the best ways to prevent tuberculosis and strengthen immunity naturally? Are there any Ayurvedic or natural remedies that help support lung health and boost recovery from TB? I’ve heard that Tulsi, Giloy, and Black Pepper are used in Ayurveda for respiratory health—do these actually work? If anyone has had tuberculosis, what symptoms appeared first, and what treatments were most effective? Did you experience any side effects from TB medications?
