Hi, i just want to ask if tb in colon is dangerous or fatal? Is it possible that it will become a cancer if not treated immediately?  In just scared because my friend was diagnosed with tb in colon just recently but then she experienced the symptoms a year ago, but she just went to the doctor just recently and that was the diagnose.
Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. This type of tuberculosis is known as extra pulmonary tuberculosis. Neither dangerous nor fatal, if proper treatment is taken. Tuberculosis never turn into cancer. Etiology of both diseases are different. In my opinion consult a physician and get complete treatment as prescribed by treating doctor. Good luck.
