Hi Doctor, I am diagnosed with lymph node TB (Abdomen) and taking AKT-4 from last 7 months and will continue till 9  months. So is my TB can be transmitted to my loving one through kiss. Also advice if it requires to continue the AKT-4 for 12 months or so.
Hello Atypical question about transmission for tuberculosis (mostly through kiss pulmonary tuberculosis spread) but if due to any reason mild acid regurgitation present in the mouth TB may infection other one (so personally I would like to advise you, please don't engage in kiss). As for as concerned about anti-tubercular treatment, it varies from patient to patient. As in your case, you are having lymph node enlargement, so AKT -4 is sufficient for 7 months. But the duration of course of anti-tubercular treatment depends on treating physician according to condition of patient. So continue your treatment till your doctor advise. Good luck.
