What us tb?
My neighbour's child was just diagnosed with something called TB. I keep hearing this term but I'm not really sure what it means. Could someone please explain what exactly TB is?

TB, or Tuberculosis, is a serious bacterial infection, mainly affects lungs but can affect other body parts too. Diet is super important for recovery, so eat nutritious, protein-rich food. Avoid processed and junk food completely, it just makes things worse.

Been there, done that. TB is Tuberculosis, caused by bacteria. The main thing is to complete your full course of medication, no matter how long it is, otherwise, it can come back even stronger. Also, good ventilation at home is key to prevent it from spreading.

Arre beta, TB ek bimari hai jisme cough aur fever bahut hota hai. Iska ilaaj pura karna padta hai, doctor ki baat suno aur dawai time pe lo. Ghar pe sabko thoda dhyan rakhna padta hai na, infection na faile.

My doctor explained TB as Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria infecting mostly lungs but also bones or brain. He stressed that it's curable with proper antibiotics for 6-9 months and it's essential to not miss any dose for drug resistance. Diagnosis is usually done with a sputum test or chest X-ray.

Oh, TB. It's Tuberculosis, right? I always worry about catching things, but apparently, it doesn't spread super easily unless you're in close contact for a long time. It's a bacterial infection, mostly affecting the lungs. If you suspect anything, please get checked immediately, don't wait.
