Root Cause of Disease
Tuberculosis is caused by bacteria that spread from person to person through microscopic droplets released into the air. This can happen when someone with the untreated, active form of tuberculosis coughs, speaks, sneezes, spits, laughs or sings. Although tuberculosis is contagious, it’s not easy to catch.
Symptoms
- Coughing for three or more weeks.
- Coughing up blood or mucus.
- Chest pain or pain with breathing or coughing.
- Unintentional weight loss.
- Fatigue.
- Fever.
- Night sweats.
- Chills.
Symptoms of active TB disease depend on where in the body the bacteria are growing. TB bacteria most often grow in the lungs.
Causes
- Being in close contact with a person with active TB disease.
- People who were born, traveled, or have lived overseas.
- Contact with groups known for passing on TB, such as the homeless, injection drug users, and persons with HIV/AIDS.
- Living or working with people who are at high risk for TB, such as those in hospitals, homeless shelters, prisons, nursing homes, or refugee camps.
The bacteria that cause TB are spread through the air when a person with active TB disease of the lungs or throat:
- Coughs
- Speaks
- Laughs
- Sings
When this happens, people nearby may breathe in these bacteria and become infected with TB. Only those with active TB disease can spread the bacteria to others. A person who has been infected with the bacteria may develop active TB disease weeks or years after infection depending on their immune system. Many people with latent TB infection never develop active TB disease.
