I'm undergoing treatment of Tuberculosis from last 1 month. I have noticed that my tongue and teeth starts discolouration from last 5 days. They have turned brown in colour. I want to know Is it because of the antibiotics of TB or do I need to visit dentist for treatment? If it's because of the medications ,then does it get back to normal on its own ?? Please reply 🙏
