Hi, by brother who is 19 is diagnosed with Bone TB about 15 days ago and is currently taking his medicines regularly.Everything was going well and then for the last to days he is suffering from severe back pain at night even while taking pain killers as prescribed by the doc. Please give me some advice. Our family is very worried with his condition. And what kind of food he should avoid. We are giving him nutritional foods but including a glass of milk every night.

which part of the bone is having tuberculosis. Is he having spinal TB. It can cause severe back pain. I would recommend you to continue TB medicines and bed rest. I would also suggest you to do MRI of the spine if not already done.
