Spine tuberclosis or bone tb

2017-09-20 05:56:03
I was having severe pain stiffness in cervico dorsal thoracic region. After suffering fr 2 years with back pain and recently sacriolitis in si joint. I was diagnosed with TB last month. taking ATT since 5 weeks but no relief. Doctor on the basis of positive montox and gold suspected my back pain as tb spine. I am very worried why there is no relief even now also? Tb medicine fr b takes this much of time to give symptomatic relief? Bone tb takes how much time approx after ATT to start healing?
