Any foreign body in the lungs virus, bacteria, food, dust, etc. is going to make you cough. This is the natural defense mechanism of the lungs. Generally, the primary symptoms of TB are significant weight loss, hemoptysis(coughing up blood), fever, and night sweats. TB can easily be diagnosed with a PPD skin test. TB is highly contagious so it needs to be treated immediately. \n\nHope this helps.

Pott's Disease? also known as tuberculous spondylitis, is an infection of the vertebral column by tuberculosis bacteria, causing low back pain.  It is usually secondary to another site of infection (commonly the lungs).\n\nAside from back pain, if the infection progresses, it can cause the collapse of vertebral disks and subsequent kyphosis and/or nerve involvement due to compression of the spinal column.\n\ntreatment is similar to that of active TB, but spine immobilization may be required depending on the extent of the disease.  If there are signs of spinal cord compression or neurological signs, surgery may be indicated.

diet and exercise alone should be enough for a very mild version of disease, I would recommend you to consider systemic immuno suppresive therapy if symptoms are persisting or getting worse, good luck

Pulmonary tuberculosis is what used to be called 'consumption,' in the bad old days.  it is a bacterial infection of the lungs.  It is usually passed through oral transmission (like a cold or a flu.)  It can be cured by a course of rest and antibiotics.  here is a good web site with info on treatments and support groups.\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000077.htm

No.  Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing bacteria that thrives in areas of the body that are rich in blood and oxygen, such as the lungs.

Symptoms:\nThe symptoms of AIDS are primarily the result of infections that do not normally develop in individuals with healthy immune systems. These are called opportunistic infections.\n\nPatients with AIDS have had their immune system depleted by HIV and are very susceptible to such opportunistic infections. Common symptoms are fevers, sweats (particularly at night), swollen glands, chills, weakness, and weight loss.\n\nSee the signs and tests section below for a list of common opportunistic infections and major symptoms associated with them.\n\nNote: Initial infection may produce no symptoms. Some people with HIV infection remain without symptoms for years between the time of exposure and development of AIDS. However, some people develop what feels like flu about two weeks after contracting the virus.\n\nSigns and tests:\nThe following is a list of AIDS-related infections and cancers that people with AIDS acquire as their CD4 count decreases. Previously, having AIDS was defined by having HIV infection and acquiring one of these additional diseases, but now it is simply defined as a CD4 count below 200. Many other illnesses and corresponding symptoms may develop in addition to those listed here.\n\n\nPrevention:\nThe following steps may seem personally restrictive, but they are effective and can save your life.\n\n1.See the article on safe sex to learn how to reduce the chance of acquiring or spreading HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.\n2.Do not use intravenous drugs. If IV drugs are used, do not share needles or syringes. Many communities now have needle exchange programs where used syringes can be disposed of and new, sterile needles obtained for free. 3.These programs can also provide referrals to addiction treatment.\n4.Avoid contacting blood from injuries or nosebleeds where the HIV status of the bleeding individual is unknown. 5.Protective clothing, masks, and goggles may be appropriate when caring for people who are injured.\n6.Anyone who tests positive for HIV may pass the disease on to others and should not donate blood, plasma, body organs, or sperm. An infected person should warn any prospective sexual partner of their HIV-positive status, should not exchange body fluids during sexual activity, and must use whatever preventative measures (such as condoms) will afford the partner the most protection.\n7.HIV-positive women who wish to become pregnant should seek counseling about the risk to unborn children and medical advances which may help prevent the fetus from becoming infected. Use of certain medications can dramatically reduce the chances that the baby will become infected during pregnancy.\n8.Mothers who are HIV-positive should not breast feed their babies.\n9.Safe-sex practices, such as latex condoms, are highly effective in preventing HIV transmission. HOWEVER, there remains a risk of acquiring the infection even with the use of condoms. Abstinence is the only sure way to prevent sexual transmission of HIV.\n\n=)

No... not at all... it has nothing to do with TB or cancer\n\nUnderarm lumps mostly develop in the armpit of that side of your body where there is any painful wound or boil etc.
