About
what is consumption disease, historically known as tuberculosis (TB), is a contagious bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB primarily affects the lungs but can also target other parts of the body like the kidneys, spine, and brain. It spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes, releasing bacteria-containing droplets that others may inhale. Symptoms include persistent cough, chest pain, fatigue, fever, and weight loss. With advancements in medicine, TB is treatable and curable with antibiotics, but multidrug-resistant strains pose challenges. Effective prevention strategies include vaccination, prompt diagnosis, and proper treatment of active cases to prevent transmission.
