I am 35 years old. For past one month i have cough . I am recently developed chest pain. I consulted doctor and get for a chest X-ray, blood test and mantoux test. In my reports- X-ray was clean but low immunity Blood test ok and montaux test positive. However when i consulted doctor she says i have allergic problem and given antibiotics. My cough is almost gone after taking antibiotics. I would also like to mention that i am also under medication for cist in uterius. Pls suggest if i need to consult any other doctor as montaux report was positive.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. If you are from India there is no need to worry about a positive manitou as we all are exposed to tuberculosis one way or the other, and it does not mean you have TB. As in India TB is an endemic disease. If your cough is settled and x-ray is normal do not worry.Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
