Post-tuberculosis Health: A Holistic Perspective on Multisystem Sequelae and Long-Term Wellbeing.

Tuberculosis survivors often face long-term physical, psychological, and social challenges that extend beyond microbiological cure. Post-tuberculosis complications include pulmonary damage, cardiovascular and neurological sequelae, as well as significant impacts on overall wellbeing and livelihoods. Despite increasing awareness, most care continues to focus primarily on lung disease, overlooking the multisystem and social needs of survivors. A holistic, people-centered framework that integrates medical, rehabilitative, and community-based strategies is essential for restoring health and facilitating societal participation among tuberculosis survivors.
