Tb commonly will not recurr.But when there are co morbidities, low immunity,it may recurr.But complete cure is there.If Tb is completely cured,No pain will come afterwards.If there is small fibrosis, it may cause occasional pain,or discomfort, which is not serious. Pl consult Pulmonologist online with all the reports and treatment taken.
