Patient's question:
A friend of mine recently encountered this issue and stayed in the hospital for a period of time. I visited him, and he said he was a bit in pain and couldn't sleep at night, which greatly affected his state. What is the matter with walking with a step?Doctor's answer:
It is possible that this symptom is caused by brain atrophy. You can undergo a cranial CT scan to determine if there is any cerebral infarction or brain atrophy formation. I don't know if the patient's cognitive function is normal? There might be a possibility of dementia. It is recommended to consult with the neurology department at the hospital for treatment. Tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. The principle of tuberculosis treatment is early, combined, regular, full-course, and sufficient dosage. Hospitalization may not be necessary, and it is recommended to have regular follow-up examinations.
