Tuberculosis

Personalized Treatment for Every Infection

Understanding Tuberculosis and Its Impact

Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious infectious disease primarily affecting the lungs but can spread to other parts of the body. Caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, TB is transmitted through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Symptoms typically include a persistent cough, chest pain, fatigue, and night sweats. As an experienced infectious disease specialist, Dr. Ankita Baidya offers accurate diagnosis and treatment for TB. Early detection and treatment are critical in preventing complications and the spread of TB to others. Dr. Baidya ensures that every patient receives comprehensive care tailored to their needs.

The treatment of tuberculosis requires a combination of antibiotics taken over an extended period, usually 6-9 months. Dr. Ankita Baidya focuses on providing personalized treatment plans based on the type of TB and individual patient health conditions. For drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), specialized medications and a more rigorous treatment approach are necessary. Dr. Baidya emphasizes the importance of medication adherence to ensure the success of the treatment and avoid resistance. Alongside medication, she provides supportive therapies to help patients manage symptoms and improve their overall health throughout the treatment process.

Preventive Measures and Long-Term Care for Tuberculosis

Preventing tuberculosis is just as important as treating it. Dr. Ankita Baidya educates her patients on the importance of early detection, vaccination (BCG vaccine), and good hygiene practices to reduce the risk of TB transmission. For patients who have completed treatment, follow-up care is crucial to ensure that the infection has been fully eradicated and to monitor for any potential relapse. Dr. Baidya also offers counseling and support to help patients maintain a healthy lifestyle and prevent reinfection. With her expert guidance and comprehensive care, patients can achieve long-term health and wellness.
