Mild to moderate exercise is advised, infact recommended for proper expansion of lungs but heavy exercise should be avoided. Consult a pulmonologist for more detailed advice

Pulmonary tb may cause pain if you have any associated pleural effusion/ pleurisy, or it may because of going to gym after a long time, do a online consultation with a pulmonologist for further evaluation and management
