Tuberculosis
Overview Symptoms Treatments

People with latent TB infection don’t feel sick and aren’t


contagious. Only a small proportion of people who get infected
with TB will get TB disease and symptoms. Babies and
children are at higher risk.

Certain conditions can increase a person’s risk for tuberculosis


disease:
diabetes (high blood sugar)
weakened immune system (for example, HIV or AIDS)
being malnourished
tobacco use

Unlike TB infection, when a person gets TB disease, they will


have symptoms. These may be mild for many months, so it is
easy to spread TB to others without knowing it.

Common symptoms of TB:


prolonged cough (sometimes with blood)
chest pain
weakness
fatigue
weight loss
fever
night sweats

The symptoms people get depend on where in the body TB


becomes active. While TB usually affects the lungs, it also
affects the kidneys, brain, spine and skin.
