Is TB Of Urinary Tract Totally Curable And What Are The Chances Of Having It?

My mom had frequent UTI and painful micturation. A procedure was done to check her ureter and a pus was seen . Apparently the dr. Had cleared the pus and my moms urination is better. Before discharge a Urine PCR test for TB was prescribed and she had done it a week ago. The result will be release on June 17th. My question is what if the result is positive is it treatable? Thanks

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
She has urinary tract infection. She has TB PCR test and result is awaited.

Evenif she has tuberculosis of urinary tract it is completely curable. Don't worry about that.

If her tuberculosis test comes positive. She need complete course of anti tuberculous drugs. It is curable and nothing to worry about that. Just be relaxed.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
