i had tb 6 years ago but i was getting pain in left side of the chest for past one yer but doctors are saying that you dont have tb.The doctors are saying that it is a muscle pain and they were giving pain killer tablets but still i was getting pain
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Chest pain in TB patients is not always related to TB. Musculoskeletal pain can be the cause. But if you really wants to rule out TB then get done chest x-ray. If chest x-ray is normal then no need to worry about TB. Avoid movements causing pain. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Avoid sudden jerky movements of chest. Apply warm water pad on affected areas of chest. Take painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
