Answer:

TB ---- Tuberculosis

Explanation:

description:

TB is an abbreviation of the word Tuberculosis and is how people often refer to the disease. Read on to learn more about the symptoms, treatment, the increasing problem of drug resistance, and the prevention of TB

Causes:

Tuberculosis is an infection caused by bacteria.

It's spread through the air—when an infected person coughs, sneezes, laughs, etc. However, it is not easy to become infected with tuberculosis. Usually, a person has to be close to someone with TB disease for a long period of time. TB is usually spread between family members, close friends, and people who work or live together. TB is spread most easily in closed spaces over a long period of time.

Risk Factors of TB:

• Family and friends of a person with infectious TB disease
• People from parts of the world with high rates of TB, including India and parts of Asian and Africa.  
• People in groups with high rates of TB transmission, including the homeless persons, injection drug users, and people living with HIV infection
• People who work or reside in facilities or institutions that house people who are at high risk for TB such as hospitals, homeless shelters, correctional facilities, nursing homes, and residential homes for those with HIV
• Babies and young children, whose immune systems have not matured
• People with chronic conditions such as diabetes or kidney disease
• People with HIV/AIDS
• Organ transplant recipients
• Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy
• People receiving certain specialized treatments for autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis or Crohn's disease
• People with the following conditions have an increased risk:
• diabetes
• certain cancers
• malnutrition
• kidney disease

Symptoms of TB:

A person with TB infection will have no symptoms. A person with active TB disease may have any or all of the following symptoms:

• A persistent cough
• Constant fatigue
• Weight loss
• Loss of appetite
• Fever
• Coughing up blood
• Night sweats
• Feeling sick or weak
• chills, fever, and night sweats
• a severe cough that lasts for 3 weeks or more
• chest pain
• The bones: There may be spinal pain and joint destruction.
• The brain: It can lead to meningitis.
• The liver and kidneys: It can impair the waste filtration functions and lead to blood in the urine.
• The heart: It can impair the heart's ability to pump blood, resulting in cardiac tamponade, a condition that can be fatal.

Treatment

The precise type and length of antibiotic treatment depend on a person's age, overall health, potential resistance to drugs, whether the TB is latent or active, and the location of infection (i.e., the lungs, brain, kidneys).

TB medication can be toxic to the liver, and although side effects are uncommon, when they do occur, they can be quite serious. Potential side effects should be reported to a doctor and include:

• Dark urine
• Fever
• Jaundice
• Loss of appetite
• Nausea and vomiting

Antibiotics are usually required to be taken for a relatively long time. The standard length of time for a course of TB antibiotics is about 6 months.
