Hello,
I understand your concern.
I am Dr. Arun Tank, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query.

Strict adherence to the treatment and diet is essential.

As you undergone surgery most of the tuberculosis burden has gone. It's now essential to maintain good treatment adherence.

Please take good diet which is rich in protein.

Please start exercise early in the morning daily. It helps in reducing disease burden.

Hygiene is important. It helps you cure from the disease and also prevent transmission to other.


I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/DrArun.
