Pneumoconiosis associated with tuberculosis - what does this mean
Pneumoconiosis associated with tuberculosis is a type of lung disease caused by long-term exposure to dust or other particles in the air. it develops when the lungs become inflamed and scarred due to the inhalation of dust or other particles, which can lead to the development of tuberculosis.
What happens during the disease - pneumoconiosis associated with tuberculosis
Pneumoconiosis associated with tuberculosis is caused by the inhalation of mycobacterium tuberculosis, which can cause scarring and inflammation in the lung tissue. this leads to the formation of nodules and fibrotic tissue, which can further obstruct the airways and impair the lung's ability to take in oxygen. this can cause shortness of breath, coughing, and chest pain, as well as an increased risk of developing other respiratory diseases.
