TB infection has serious symptoms like persistent cough (more than 3 weeks), fever, night sweats, and weight loss. Please, do not trust any random home remedies you find online for this. It's a serious bacterial infection that requires proper medical diagnosis and a full course of antibiotics prescribed by a doctor. Verify everything with a doctor.

My friend actually got TB a couple of years ago. He had this really persistent cough, like, for weeks, and was losing weight without trying. Also had fever and night sweats. Doctors caught it, and he completed his medicine course. So yeah, if you have these symptoms, get tested.

Oh, TB can be very frightening. I used to try many home remedies for coughs and fevers, but for TB, the symptoms like a cough lasting more than three weeks, constant fever, night sweats, and losing weight really need a doctor's attention. Don't delay the treatment, it's very important.

As someone who deals with PCOS, I know how complex health issues can be. TB infection symptoms usually include a cough that lasts for weeks, fever, night sweats, and unexplained weight loss. It's crucial not to self-diagnose or delay; please see a doctor immediately for proper testing and treatment. Early action is key.

While a nutritious vegetarian diet supports immunity, TB infection requires specific medical treatment. Symptoms like a long-lasting cough, fever, night sweats, and weight loss are serious. Please consult a doctor; proper medication is essential, and diet alone cannot cure TB.

A persistent cough, fever, night sweats, and unexplained weight loss are common signs of TB infection. While staying fit helps overall immunity, for TB, immediate medical diagnosis and a complete course of medication are non-negotiable. Don't self-treat, please see a doctor.

Ho na, TB infection ke symptoms hain lamba cough, jo teen hafte se zyada chale, fever, raat ko paseena aana, aur vajan kam hona. Agar aise kuch bhi symptoms hain, toh turant doctor ko dikhao. Yeh bahut serious hota hai, no?

Haan, TB ke symptoms kaafi clear hote hain. Long-term cough, especially with blood, fever, night sweats, weight loss. Agar aisa kuch bhi feel ho raha hai toh bina der kiye doctor ke paas jaao, na? Government hospitals mein bhi achha treatment milta hai.
