Journal Title: EIJO Journal of Ayurveda, Herbal Medicine and Innovative Research (EIJO – AHMIR) - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
It is a chronic disease with insidious onset and is caused by mycobacterium tuberculi. Once it was considered to be almost under control, has once again become serious problem worldwide. Tuberculosis generally affects the lungs, but can also affect other parts of the body. Most infections do not have symptoms; in which case it is known as latent tuberculosis. About 10% of latent infections progress to active disease which, if left untreated, kills about half of those infected. The classic symptoms of active TB are a chronic cough with blood-containing sputum, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. The historical term "consumption" came about due to the weight loss. Infection of other organs can cause a wide range of symptoms.
