Hi,
I understand your concern.
- First of all, 6you have to get her fully investigated from a chest physician & know about the extent of her infection.. if it's active tuberculosis passing the infection to others via coughing, sneezing )& she needs isolation or her disease is non infecting & under control.. she can be treated at home & she can feed her baby at this stage.
Speak to her doctor & decide
- Medicines , regular consumption & regular follow up is a must . Tuberculosis can be fully controlled & patient can lead a normal life if she follows treatment plan exactly.
- Apart from this personsl care in form of-
- cleanliness,
- high protein , vitamin, iron ,mineral diet .
She needs high proteins in form of milk 2 glasses in a day , boiled egg/ protein powder available in pharmacy mixed with milk./ fresh vegetables & salads at least 10 glasses of clean water .. apart from her routine meals.
- light exercises ( yoga/ walking/ respiratory exercises) .. to help good appetite & digestion
-Iron & vitamins in form of tonics as per doctor's advise.
Thanks.
