f-. 24 The Health Bulletin SYMPTOMS OF TUBEECILOSIS Many people die of tuberculosis because they don't know they have it until it is in an advanced and practically incurable stage. The earlier tuberculosis is recognized and the cure begun the easier it is to cure. It has been found that of the very early cases of tuberculosis found and promptly and properly treated, ^ly^ per cent recovered. Of the moderately advanced tions of the laws of hygiene reduce one's physical vitality and render him much more susceptible to tuberculosis» or other diseases. Any one or more of the following symptoms are suggestive of tuberculosis and call for a thorough examination by a careful physician. . 1. Loss of weight without any other apparent cause. 2. Tiring easily after ordinary exertion. SYMPTOMS OF TUBERCULOSIS BE ED(AMIMED IF YOU NAVE ONE OR.MORE OF THESE J^ cough lasting longer than three weeks isver^; suspicious Lo55 of weigh!: or Tiring easili; suggests tuberculosis continued temperature op98.® or less in the J{]ow blood pressure morning and an af ternooa rnay mean tut>ercu]osi5. you have any one or more oP these temperature oF99.^ or more are strong indications of tuberculosis. cases 661/4 per cent recover and of the advanced cases only per cent recover. One should be suspicious of tuberculosis if he has been living with, or in close contact with, a tuberculous person who has been a careless cougher, sneezer, and spitter. Frequent colds or a "bad case of grippe" with a persistent cough or sore or swollen lymph glands or kernels in the neck, are causes for suspicion. Dissipation, overwork, intemperance, or other viola- symptoms be examined by a careful physician at once. 3. A cough that lasts more than three weeks. 4. A temperature of 98.0 or less in the morning, and an afternoon temperature of 99.5 or more. 5. A low blood pressure is suggestive. 6. A hemorrhage from the lungs means tuberculosis without exception. Germs of tuberculosis in the sputum are a sure but a late sign of tuberculosis. The diagnosis should have been made and treatment begun long before the case reaches this advanced stage.
