Suggest Remedy For Pain In Right Side Of The Chest

Hi Doc, I was diagnosed with Pulmonary TB and under medication at the moment. I am consulting a Doc in India for this and he has prescribed me some antibiotics for infection for another 4 months. I am feeling better now and all the symptoms are gone. The issue i have now is that i get pain in my chest (Right side) is i take a deep breath or release breath.

Some residue was seen as a patch in the right side of my Lungs in X-Ray & CT Scan reports. Is it normal to have these pains during TB medication or should i be worried about it.

Hi welcome to the health care magic

You have diagnosed with tuberculosis and receiving akt for that...

Thus drug can leads gastritis and so referred pain can occur

Second pain may be because of lung parenchyma inflammation in tuberculosis...

Complete the course of prescribed drugs and take regularly in prescribed manner

Avoid smoking if having habit and keep dust and pollution exposure minimum

Take care
