Can sharing the same food spreads tuberculosis?
Yes, sharing the same food can potentially spread tuberculosis (TB), but it's not a primary mode of transmission. TB is primarily spread through airborne droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes. However, if food is contaminated with respiratory secretions from someone with active TB, there is a minimal risk of transmission, particularly if the food is not cooked. Overall, the risk of TB transmission through shared food is much lower compared to respiratory routes.
What is intestinal TB?
Intestinal tuberculosis (TB) is a rare form of tuberculosis that occurs when the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria infect the intestines. It often results from the spread of pulmonary TB or can arise from ingestion of infected materials. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and fever, making it challenging to diagnose. Treatment typically involves a prolonged course of antitubercular medications.
Why TB ulcers are transverse?
Transverse ulcers in tuberculosis (TB) occur due to the specific pattern of tissue necrosis caused by the infection. TB typically leads to the formation of granulomas, and as these granulomas coalesce, they can create larger areas of tissue damage. The transverse orientation of the ulcers is influenced by the anatomical structure of the affected tissue and the way the inflammatory response spreads, often leading to a broader and more horizontal destruction of the tissue. This unique ulcer formation helps differentiate TB ulcers from those caused by other conditions.
How tuberculosis attack?
Tuberculosis, also abbreviated TB, is an infectious disease caused by several types of mycobacteria, specially the mycobacterium tuberculosis that most often - but not always - affect the lungs causing pulmonary tuberculosis. TB can be transmitted from person to person through the air. If the infection spreads beyond the lungs, the symptoms will be determined by the organs affected. Most cases are asymptomatic. TB get worse in people with compromised or weak immune system. There are two types of TB: - Latent TB, which means people have the bacteria but not symptoms and do not transmit the disease. - Active TB, where the symptoms are manifested. First months they can be mild and not easy to recognize without tests. Patients can die if not treated. Cough with sputum and/or blood is typical of lung TB. Source: esagil.org lung.org
