Primary respiratory tuberculosis is caused by the inhalation of airborne mycobacterium tuberculosis organisms. the bacteria attach to the alveolar walls, causing inflammation and necrosis, leading to the formation of granulomas in the lungs. these granulomas can cause obstruction of the airways, leading to coughing, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. as the infection progresses, the granulomas can spread to other organs, leading to systemic symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and weight loss.
