Expert Tuberculosis Treatment and Care in Andheri West

Understanding Tuberculosis (TB)

Tuberculosis, or TB, is a bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It primarily affects the lungs (pulmonary tuberculosis) but can also impact other parts of the body. TB can spread through airborne droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes, making early diagnosis and treatment essential to prevent complications. At Curis Life Clinic, Andheri West, our expert pulmonologists provide advanced care for TB, ensuring a faster recovery and a healthier life.

Types of Tuberculosis

TB can manifest in different forms, depending on the stage and severity of the infection:

Latent Tuberculosis: The bacteria remain inactive, causing no symptoms but may activate later.
Active Tuberculosis: The bacteria are active and cause noticeable symptoms.
Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB): TB that doesn’t respond to standard antibiotics.
Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis: Affects areas outside the lungs, such as lymph nodes, kidneys, or bones.

Each type requires a specialized treatment approach for effective management.

Common Symptoms of Tuberculosis

Recognizing TB symptoms early is key to preventing its spread and ensuring timely treatment. Common symptoms include:

Persistent cough lasting more than three weeks.
Coughing up blood or mucus.
Chest pain during breathing or coughing.
Fatigue and weakness.
Night sweats and fever.
Unexplained weight loss and loss of appetite.

If you notice these symptoms, it’s crucial to consult a TB specialist near you.!

Causes and Risk Factors of Tuberculosis

TB is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a bacterium that spreads through the air. Certain factors can increase the risk of developing TB, including:

HIV and Tuberculosis: Weakened immune systems make individuals more susceptible.
Chronic Illnesses: Conditions like diabetes or kidney disease.
Malnutrition: Poor nutrition weakens the immune response.
Smoking: Damages lung tissue, increasing vulnerability to infection.
Living Conditions: Overcrowded or poorly ventilated spaces facilitate TB transmission.

Understanding these risk factors helps in creating an effective prevention and treatment strategy.

Tuberculosis Diagnosis at Curis Life Clinic

We use advanced diagnostic techniques to ensure accurate detection of TB, including:

Chest X-Rays: Detect abnormalities in the lungs caused by TB.
TB Skin Test (Mantoux Test): Measures immune response to the TB bacteria.
TB Blood Test (IGRA): Confirms infection, especially for latent TB cases.
Sputum Culture: Identifies the presence of TB bacteria in mucus samples.

Early and precise diagnosis is crucial for determining the best course of treatment.
