What Causes Pus Discharge From TB Lesions Despite Having Antibiotics?

It is correct. Be careful of secondary infection
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX I believe the treatment offered has been on the right lines. Discharge due to a tubercular lesion usually decreases only once medicines control the infection which takes about two months. You should be careful of her contracting secondary bacterial infection which you would come to know by symptoms of high spiking fever, redness around the wound and severe pain in area of wound. Therefore you should have regular continuous checkups with your treating Doctor. Also get the liver function tests every month which reveals any reaction to the ATT.
Take care and contact us in case of any other queries or problems that might arise. Do not worry and recovery should occur successfully.
Dr Rishi, New XXXXXXX XXXXXXX
