Is calcification caused by tuberculosis treatment contagious to others?
This is an automatically translated article.
Ask
Doctor let me ask! I went for a test and the doctor concluded that it was calcification caused by pulmonary tuberculosis treatment. Before that, I had tuberculosis and passed the 6 month treatment regimen and tested negative. Now my health is also normal. Gained a lot of weight, no cough, only occasional shortness of breath. So is there any treatment and is my disease contagious to others?

Hi! Currently, I have been treated with a full regimen of tuberculosis for 6 months, and the TB lesions have calcified. So I have recovered from the disease and am not able to infect others anymore.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards.
