Will cured TUBERCULOSIS seen in chest XRAY?

Resolved Question:

I was born in 1973 and i am 41 years old now. In 1987, so around 28 years ago, I was found to have tuberculosis. I was given treatment I.N.H for 1 year. Everything is fine i never had issues with this matter. But now this came to my mind because i got a job offer in the gulf region and i know that in the medical exam the check for tuberculosis even past ones that have been cured. I am scared to get disqualified for the job offer. Is there a way to find out about this. Would it still show in any tests if i have been cured 28 years ago? I have an old note from a doctor that says chest X ray negative. I am worried because i know that in the gulf they don t care even sometimes if it is an older one. I am very worried. A detailed answer would be appreciated

Hello

Thanks for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com

I can understand your concern.

This is acne. Also known as pimples.

To keep it in check i would recommend a salicylic acid based facewash twice daily.

Also application of clindamycin gel twice a day on the pimples.

Application of benzoyl peroxide or adapalene gel for an hour every night on the full face.

My advice would be to not break the pimples in case you are doing do. Adapalene gel has to be avoided during pregnancy. You will require prescription for the creams.

Take care

Regards.
