Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Regular alcohol drinking is associated with multiple vitamin deficiency in body and lowered immunity which can increase chances of infection. You are already on treatment for spinal TB treatment, which is a serious issue specially during complication and can lead to paralysis of multiple parts of body.

No doctor will advice alcohol even for normal persons. There is strict advice against alcohol in case of spinal TB.

Wishing you good health and all the best.
