Question
I'm really worried about my friend who's only 23. Last year she suddenly started coughing up blood, and after all the tests, the X-ray wasn't promising. She consulted Dr. Dinesh, who's a chest specialist, and started on a TB treatment. She finished her TB course just last month, but this morning, she started coughing up blood again. What should we do for her?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It sounds like the patient is experiencing recurrent bleeding after completing TB treatment. Given her history, it's crucial to reassess her condition with further investigations, such as a chest X-ray or sputum test, to rule out any complications or relapse of TB. Immediate consultation with a specialist is recommended for a tailored treatment plan.
