Skin tuberculosis
Is skin TB dangerous? Is it curable? I already completed 4 months of course and taking the medicine after that also. I had a gallbladder surgery and after that I had this infection in my belly fat. Is it possible to spread this to my whole skin as i have already taking medicine from last 4 months.
