A member asked:

Can heavy exercises and workouts in gym cause 6 month old tb lymphadenitis to relapse or spread to other organs?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tuberculosis: It is unlikely that exercise will cause TB to disseminate. Am assuming you have been treated. TB is seldom cured in the sense that all organisms are eliminated, but spread is usually related to some depression in immune function rather than due to exercise.
