Tuberculosis is caused by bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It most commonly affects the lungs, although it can also affect other organs.
Pulmonary TB can cause symptoms that develop gradually. Some people may initially think they have an ordinary cough or a seasonal respiratory infection.
Common symptoms can include:
Cough lasting several weeks
Fever
Night sweats
Tiredness
Loss of appetite
Unexplained weight loss
Chest discomfort
Coughing up blood in some cases
A persistent cough should be medically assessed rather than ignored.
Consider medical evaluation if you have a cough that continues for several weeks, particularly when it is accompanied by other symptoms.
You should seek medical advice if you experience:
Persistent cough
Fever that continues or returns
Night sweats
Unexplained weight loss
Reduced appetite
Ongoing tiredness
Chest discomfort
Blood in sputum
Repeated respiratory symptoms
These symptoms can have causes other than tuberculosis, so a medical assessment is important before reaching a conclusion.

If you have a persistent cough, unexplained weight loss, fever or other symptoms that concern you, a doctor can review your medical history and determine whether further evaluation is appropriate.
Tuberculosis cannot be diagnosed from symptoms alone. Appropriate medical assessment and, when indicated, diagnostic testing are important.
During a consultation, the doctor may ask about:
How long you have had a cough
Whether you produce mucus
Fever or night sweats
Weight or appetite changes
Chest discomfort
Breathing difficulty
Previous respiratory infections
Previous TB history
Exposure to someone diagnosed with TB
Current medicines and medical conditions
Depending on the symptoms and clinical findings, further investigations may be recommended.
Coughing blood can occur with pulmonary tuberculosis, but it can also occur with several other respiratory conditions.
If you notice blood in your sputum, particularly if it happens repeatedly, you should seek medical assessment.
If you are coughing up a significant amount of blood or have severe breathing difficulty, seek urgent emergency medical care.
