Spine Tuberculosis
It's really tough seeing my mother suffering from spine tuberculosis. Even though she's undergoing treatment, the pain in her legs is excruciating and doesn't seem to be improving. I know it takes time for the medication to work, but I'm hoping for some tips on how to manage her leg pain better. Any advice on pain management would be greatly appreciated.

spinal tuberculosis could irritate nerves and cause pain. bed rest is recommended for a month. medicines will start action after 3-4 weeks. if pain is increasing you can get a repeat mri done and consult with your neurosurgeon as she may need nerve pain medication along with opioids temporarily.
