Tuberculosis (T.B.) is a serious infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It primarily affects the lungs but can also involve the brain, kidneys, spine, or other organs. TB spreads through airborne droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
At Subhadra Hospital, we provide accurate diagnosis, specialized care, and complete support to help patients overcome TB. Early detection and proper treatment are essential for a full recovery and to prevent the spread of infection.
Common symptoms of TB include:
Persistent cough lasting more than 2–3 weeks
Chest pain or discomfort
Coughing up blood or sputum
We follow a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to TB care:
Clinical evaluation and detailed history-taking to assess symptoms
Sputum testing, chest X-rays, and blood tests to confirm diagnosis
Drug-sensitive and drug-resistant TB management
Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course (DOTS) to ensure proper medication adherence
Nutritional guidance to improve immunity and recovery
Isolation advice and counseling to prevent spread and support mental well-being
Monitoring and follow-up for treatment response and completion
