what is the symptom of tuberculosis
Answers
Answer:
Requires a medical diagnosis
Most people infected with the bacteria that cause tuberculosis don't have symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they usually include a cough (sometimes blood-tinged), weight loss, night sweats and fever.
People may experience:
Pain areas: in the chest
Pain circumstances: can occur while breathing
Cough: can be chronic or with blood
Whole body: fatigue, fever, loss of appetite, malaise, night sweats, or sweating
Also common: loss of muscle, phlegm, severe unintentional weight loss, shortness of breath, or swollen lymph nodes
↬Early infection causes no symptoms as the body's immune system protects spread, and in many cases, it remains inactive - this stage is referred to as Latent TB and shows no symptoms. Early diagnosis and treatment is necessary to control the spread of the infection.
↬Active TB is a stage where immediate medications and care is required, the common symptoms include:
Persistent cough (which lasts for more than 2 - 3 weeks)
↬Cough with blood in sputum
↬Fever for more than 2 -3 weeks
↬Sudden weight loss
↬Night sweats
↬Loss of appetite
