Primary pulmonary TB develops in the minority of people whose immune systems do not successfully contain the primary TB infection. In this case, the disease may occur within weeks after the primary infection. TB may also lie dormant for years and reappear after the initial infection is contained. Pulmonary TB is a contagious bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The lungs are primarily involved, but the infection can spread to other organs. TB effecting the lungs by breaking down tissue of the alveoli that is responsible for gas, or oxygen exchange with the environment. Some side effects of pulmonary TB are wheezing, excessive sweating, especially at night chest pain, breathing difficulty. These are all a result of the lung tissue either being broken down or mutated to not do their function. In some cases fluid collects in the lungs as well as dangerous toxins from the environment. This is due to the fact that the lung can no longer expel the pathogen (toxin, disease). Pulmonary TB is serious and should be seen by a doctor as soon as possible. If you've already been diagnosed explore your treatment options but try to find a quick and complete solution to your TB. Take care of yourself
