Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
It primarily affects the lungs, but it can also affect other parts of the body, such as the kidneys, bones, and brain.
The treatment of tuberculosis (TB) typically involves a combination of antibiotics taken over an extended period of time, usually 6-9 months, depending on the severity of the infection.
Surgery may be necessary for some people with tuberculosis (TB), particularly those with a type of TB called multidrug-resistant TB or extensively drug-resistant TB, where the bacteria are resistant to multiple antibiotics.
A doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis (TB) is called a Pulmonologist.
