Suggest Complications With Tuberculosis Gland
Hi thanks for contacting HCM... Positive mantoux test doesn t always means positive tuberculosis ... Sputum examination, biopsy from lymph node for histopathological and microbiology examination...These investigation help in confirming TB... Yes tuberculosis can spread through aerogenous route to another people... In your body it can spread to other organs if your immunity is low... It is better to go for six month antituberculous therapy ... Take healthy and balanced diet .. Take care
