I'm really worried because after getting my x-ray and CT report at the civil hospital, the doctor mentioned something about tuberculosis. Could you explain what this means for me and what I should do next?

I'm having this odd itching sensation in my left lung, just above my abdomen area. It's not there all the time, but when it hits, it really bothers me. There's nothing else going on symptom-wise that I've noticed. Could this be something I should worry about? What's possibly causing it?

I'm really worried about my brother who was diagnosed with MDR TB. He went through three months of injections and took a lot of medicines for almost a year, but sometimes he still has a cough. It's not all day, but it happens occasionally. How can we check his current condition? What tests would show if the TB is completely gone? Would a chest X-ray help? He's not on meds anymore, so Im wondering if MDR TB is something that stays for life or if it can be fully treated. How long does the treatment usually last? Is it possible for him to be completely cured? I'm not sure what steps we should take next.

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm experiencing this really uncomfortable chest tightness along with some pain in both the lower and upper parts of my right chest. I've also been dealing with sneezing and watery eyes that come with a cough. When I do cough, there's this light yellow mucus with a few greenish pieces. The pain's gotten a bit worse over the past two days, especially when I'm sitting or sleeping on my right side. What could this be?

take tablet zerodol twice a day and syrup ascoril
