Why is Pediatric TB Still Missed?
Despite medical progress, tuberculosis in children remains underdiagnosed. It's not just about treatment โ it's about awareness and early suspicion. Drawing on decades in the field, four major barriers stand out:
- Vague symptoms โ often confused with common coughs or colds.
- Complex diagnostics โ pediatric TB is harder to confirm with standard tools.
- Low suspicion โ it's often the last thing considered by clinicians.
- Social stigma โ fear keeps families from seeking timely help.
The goal is #TBMuktBharat โ moving from "waiting to treat" to "actively finding" cases. Early suspicion = timely diagnosis = a healthy future. ๐ฎ๐ณ
