Patient's question:
Patient age: 30, fever, coughing up phlegm, sweating, weakness, test shows lung TB. Can this disease be treated? Can you get married after treatment?Doctor's answer:
Hello, tuberculosis is a lung disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which can cause symptoms such as coughing, sputum production, low-grade fever, fatigue, night sweats, poor appetite, and weight loss.Medical Advice: It is recommended that you seek treatment at a local certified tuberculosis prevention and control station. Tuberculosis requires standardized administration of anti-tuberculosis drugs. Currently, free combined anti-tuberculosis drugs are available in every region, typically involving a combination of 3-4 medications. Treatment usually lasts for 6 months to a year and can effectively cure the disease. Using only isoniazid alone may not be effective and could even lead to drug resistance. With standardized and rational treatment, tuberculosis can be cured.
You can get married, but it is best to undergo a sputum smear test for acid-fast bacilli. If the result is negative, it means you are not infectious. However, avoid pregnancy during medication.
Wishing you a speedy recovery and a happy, prosperous family life.
