TUBERCULOUS ARTHRITIS Causes Tuberculous arthritis is caused by the bacteria, Mycobacterium tuberculosis . A very small number of people who have TB will develop this form of arthritis. The joints most often involved are the:

Chest x-ray CT scan of the spine Joint x-rays Tuberculin skin test (also called PPD)

Ankles Hips Knees Spine Wrists

Treatment Drug therapy Most patients with TB can recover if given appropriate medication for a sufficient length of time. Three principles govern modern drug treatment of TB:

Most cases involve just one joint. TB involving the spine is often referred to as Pott's disease. It makes up about half of all TB-related bone infections. Symptoms

Lowering the number of bacilli as quickly as possible. This measure minimizes the risk of transmitting the disease. When sputum cultures become negative, this has been achieved. Conversely, if the sputum remains positive afterfive to six months, treatment has failed. Preventing the development of drug resistance. For this reason, at least two different drugs and sometimes three are always given at first. If drug resistance is suspected, at least two different drugs should be tried. Long-term treatment to prevent relapse.

Decreased movement in the joints Excessive sweating, especially at night Joint swelling with warm, tender joints Low-grade fever Muscle atrophy Muscle spasms Numbness, tingling, or weakness below the infection (if the spine is involved) Weight loss or loss of appetite

Note: The condition usually starts slowly and usually involves only one joint. Exams and Tests A physical examination shows swelling and irritation (inflammation) of the joint.

Tests: Aspiration of fluid in the joint Biopsy of the joint to detect the bacteria that causes TB

Five drugs are most commonly used today to treat tuberculosis: isoniazid (INH, Laniazid, Nydrazid); rifampin (Rifadin, Rimactane); pyrazinamide (Tebrazid); streptomycin; and ethambutol (Myambutol). The first three drugs may be given in the same capsule to minimize the number of pills in the dosage. As of 1998, many patients are given INH and rifampin together for six months, with pyrazinamide added for the first two months. Hospitalization is rarely necessary because many patients are no longer infectious after about two weeks of combination treatment. Follow-up involves monitoring of side effects and monthly sputum tests. Of the five medications, INH is the most frequently used drug for both treatment and prevention.

Your doctor or nurse is required by law to report your TB illness to the local health department. Your health care team will be sure that you receive the best care for your TB. Taking painkillers and applying heat or cold to the joints may relieve pain. Surgery may be needed, especially to drain spinalabscesses or to stabilize the spine. Surgery is rarely needed for infections at other sites. Extrapulmonary tuberculosis Although the lungs are the major site of damage caused by tuberculosis, many other organs and tissues in the body may be affected. The usual progression is for the disease to spread from the lungs to locations outside the lungs (extrapulmonary sites). In some cases, however, the first sign of disease appears outside the lungs. The many tissues or organs that tuberculosis may affect include:

Meninges. The meninges are tissues that cover the brain and the spinal cord. Infection of the meninges by the TB bacillus causes tuberculous meningitis, a condition that is most common in young children but is especially dangerous in the elderly. Patients develop headaches, become drowsy, and eventually comatose. Permanent brain damage is the rule unless prompt treatment is given. Some patients with tuberculous meningitis develop a tumor-like brain mass called a tuberculoma that can cause stroke-like symptoms. Skin, intestines, adrenal glands, and blood vessels. All these parts of the body can be infected by M. tuberculosis. Infection of the wall of the body's main artery (the aorta), can cause it to rupture with catastrophic results. Tuberculous pericarditis occurs when the membrane surrounding the heart (the pericardium) is infected and fills up with fluid that interferes with the heart's ability to pump blood. Miliary tuberculosis. Miliary TB is a life-threatening condition that occurs when large numbers of tubercle bacilli spread throughout the body. Huge numbers of tiny tubercular lesions develop that cause marked weakness and weight loss, severe anemia, and gradual wasting of the body. Food Options for TB Patients

Bones. TB is particularly likely to attack the spine and the ends of the long bones. Children are especially prone to spinal tuberculosis. If not treated, the spinal segments (vertebrae) may collapse and cause paralysis in one or both legs. Kidneys. Along with the bones, the kidneys are probably the commonest site of extrapulmonary TB. There may, however, be few symptoms even though part of a kidney is destroyed. TB may spread to the bladder. In men, it may spread to the prostate gland and nearby structures. Female reproductive organs. The ovaries in women may be infected; TB can spread from them to the peritoneum, which is the membrane lining the abdominal cavity. Abdominal cavity. Tuberculous peritonitis may cause pain ranging from the vague discomfort of stomach cramps to intense pain that may mimic the symptoms of appendicitis. Joints. Tubercular infection of joints causes a form of arthritis that most often affects the hips and knees. The wrist, hand, and elbow joints also may become painful and inflamed.

Healthy

As malnutrition is a commonest sign/symptom of the disease, diet plays a vital role in fighting TB. Nutrient-dense food options loaded with essential vitamins, minerals and nutrients are considered best for tuberculosis patients. Deficiency of nutrients, especially protein ceases bodys ability to combat infection. Dietary Recommendations for Tuberculosis Patients 1. Tuberculosis patients should abstain from drinking alcohol due to the reason that medications like isoniazid, pyrazinamide and rifampin along with alcohol tends to damage liver. 2. Oily and spicy food should be entirely avoided so that complications shouldnt increase any further.

3. Choosing health options carefully for managing weight or possibly gaining healthy weight. 4. Tuberculosis patients must include plenty of fruits and vegetables in their everyday regimen for an apt caloric intake. Mix bag of starchy vegetables, citrus fruits, dark green leafy vegetables and legumes are the healthy foods for tuberculosis patients. 5. Whole grains should also be a part of diet plan for tuberculosis, which ascertains weight management and improves immune system. 6. Milk and dairy products are other essential components of TB diet, but these should be low in fat content or fat-free. 7. Bitter gourd also renders several benefits to tuberculosis patients. Getting Good Nutrition When You Have TB To give your body the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients it needs to fight active tuberculosis and regain your strength and stamina, you need to eat a diet containing a variety of healthy foods, such as:

Skip tobacco in all forms. Don't drink alcohol it can add to the risk of liver damage from some of the drugs used to treat your TB. Limit coffee and other caffeinated drinks. Limit refined products, like sugar, white breads, and white rice. Avoid high-fat, high-cholesterol red meat and instead load up on leaner protein sources like poultry, beans, tofu, and fish.

Leafy, dark-colored greens like kale and spinach, for their high iron and B-vitamin content Plenty of whole grains, like whole wheat pastas, breads, and cereals Antioxidant-rich, brightly-colored vegetables, such as carrots, peppers, and squash, and fruits, like tomatoes, blueberries, and cherries think of buying produce in a full rainbow of colors Unsaturated fats like vegetable or olive oil, instead of butter

Talk to your doctor about whether you have any nutrient deficiencies and if taking a daily multivitamin with minerals makes good nutrition sense for you. A recent review of the limited studies done on supplements in patients with TB showed some evidence that high-calorie energy supplements helped underweight patients gain body weight, and that zinc, combined with other micronutrients or with vitamin A, may offer nutritional help. The reviewers concluded that additional studies are needed. What to Avoid When You Have Active Tuberculosis As is always the case for good health, there are certain foods you shouldnt eat and substances you shouldnt use.
