Also while having treatment doctor suspected for TB and given him profilitic medication for 1 months.
It's been 15 days since tb medicine and he is having lots of other issues like pain,nausea,cough and weakness due to these medicines. Should we stop these TB medicine and continue only with bones related medicine.

TB test CB Naat is negative and blood culture is showing no problem.
Attaching ct scan report which suggests it is chronic infection.
Kindly suggest and let us know better option to provide comfort from this.
