Pott's dz will damage your spine stability so you have risk of spinal cord injury.
My advice
1.Use orthosis or brace to support your spine esp.when you walk or Lift something.
2.Keep take drug until 6-9 months (depend on your doctor opinion) you side effect will be severe in 2 weeks and you'll feel better.
Thank you for your question.
