Dr. Urvashi Singh says that it has been seen in the symptoms of influenza flu including corona virus that cough remains present in patients for several weeks even after the corona or flu is cured. There is also fatigue. While looking at the symptoms of pulmonary TB, there is cough for more than two weeks. In such a situation, people keep ignoring cough thinking it as a problem caused by Covid or flu. While in this condition, the disease progresses due to TB infection. There is also a mild fever in TB, which looks like fatigue or heat, which people consider as a side effect of corona or flu. That’s why people need to pay a lot of attention that whenever the cough with mucus is more than two weeks, then without delay, get the TB test done. There is no harm in getting the test done, but there is definitely an advantage that better treatment is possible if the disease is detected before time.
