Miliary tuberculosis is more serious than invasive tuberculosis.

miliary and infiltrative tuberculosis which is serious

Miliary tuberculosis generally refers to tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis entering the bloodstream and widely distributed to the lungs and other organs. It is a more dangerous type of tuberculosis, which is easy to cause Mycobacterium tuberculosis to enter the brain through bloodstream dissemination, causing tuberculous meningitis. Infiltrative tuberculosis is exogenous secondary tuberculosis caused by repeated infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Its dissemination ability is weaker than miliary tuberculosis, so miliary tuberculosis is more serious.

Patients need timely treatment to control the progression of the disease.
