Question 1

My wife has been dealing with TB Meningitis for the last two years. She completed the TB medication course, but she's still struggling with a lot of neural and back pain. An MRI showed signs of myelitis and some changes in her spinal cord, which has us really concerned. The doctors say that while the TB bacteria is gone, the damage might be beyond repair and her chances of recovery are slim at best. They've recommended physiotherapy and visiting pain management centers for her current pain. For about a year and a half, shes been on Gabapin 300 and Gabantip AT. Can you suggest any pain management centers, or maybe share your thoughts on any potential for recovery?

Accepted Answer

Unexplained bruising can be caused by various factors.

Possible reasons for bruising without injury include:

Vitamin deficiencies (e.g., vitamin C, K, or B12)
Blood clotting disorders
Medication side effects
Liver or kidney issues
Easy bruising syndrome (a condition that affects blood vessels)

Consult a doctor or a hematologist for a comprehensive evaluation and blood tests to determine the underlying cause.
