My brother has bone TB and has been on medication but has been bedridden for the past month. Some private doctors recommended surgery can he recover with just proper meds and a good diet or is surgery really necessary?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While proper medication and a good diet are essential for recovery from bone TB, surgery may be necessary in some cases, especially if the infection has caused significant damage or complications. It's crucial to follow the advice of your doctor and a healthcare professional, who can assess the specific situation and determine the best course of treatment for your brother.
