Do you know these 9 symptoms of latent tuberculosis?

Tuberculosis is a very serious infectious disease. The incubation period of this disease is from the beginning of bacterial infection to the onset of symptoms. When suffering from tuberculosis, its onset period is generally 3 months, but the time varies from person to person depending on the degree of infection and physical health of the patient. So what are the symptoms of tuberculosis during the incubation period?

1. In the early stages of pulmonary tuberculosis, symptoms generally include fatigue in the morning and afternoon, restlessness at night, and difficulty falling asleep.

2. Unexplained weight loss occurs.

3. Decreased appetite, food tastes tasteless, and there is a lack of appetite.

4. If a woman has neither gynecological disease nor pregnancy but has irregular menstruation or amenorrhea, or a man has a lot of nocturnal emission, it is necessary to consider whether she has tuberculosis and go to the hospital for examination.

5. Pulmonary tuberculosis that develops as pleurisy will show symptoms of pleurisy such as chest tightness and chest pain in the early stages.

6. Patients with more obvious symptoms of tuberculosis poisoning are prone to night sweats. If night sweats occur frequently, you should consider whether you have tuberculosis.

7. There will be afternoon hot flashes, low fever in the afternoon or evening, which will subside in the second half of the night, a bit like the tide, rising and falling. At this time, an X-ray examination will not reveal anything abnormal in the lungs, so you need to consider whether it is tuberculosis.

8. Frequent coughing with blood in the sputum, or coughing up blood in the morning.

9. Chronic cough, dry cough or sputum in the early morning.

The above are the symptoms that are more likely to appear in the early stages of tuberculosis. If one or several of them appear, you should go to a medical institution for a tuberculosis examination. Generally speaking, the possibility of tuberculosis is relatively high. Because the early symptoms of tuberculosis are mild or absent, you must not ignore these symptoms.
