Question: Dear Sir, I got infected from tuberculosis in lungs and terminal ileum during 1998 i.e. 15 years back. the same got treated fully and I got cured. but I always feel like contraction in my chest and back muscle. Is there any cure for this. I visited doctors several times but after checkup they found nothing adverse.

Dear Doctor, Thank you for your recommendation, I would be working on that. As you rightly diagnosed its stiffness in the back muscle (center point center point for me) Further, I feel stretch like feeling around/surrounding the center point and the effect/feeling of which ends downward near hip and upward near lower jaw. > it was first felt by me 15 years back with severe weakness which was diagnosed as tuberculosis (lungs as well as terminal ilem) as already be discussed to you. The same was fully cured after medication. >the pain/stiffness is continuous for last 15 year. >feeling is round the clock > It increases after physical work and when also empty stomach >Breathing exercise like YOGA gives relief but for some time say a day. >using vibrator/massager give temporary relief to a great extant but not permanent >if I stop exercise for few days stiffness increases, if feel uneasy. >I have no smoking/alcohol habit and never had it >I am a Banker and working environment/ambiance is also almost conducive, mostly air-conditioned. > First, Kindly suggest if any medicine for some time if taken may reduce stiffness or supplementary food. > Second, for TEN treatments should I need to visit clinic or it can be used in home after having machine. >I am doing yoga for long; I would be resorting to some physiotherapist soon as advised by you.
