[|AI|]  Hello, Usually, patients will present to old with vague back pain later this pain may become troublesome and may not respond to general treatment.  Depending upon X-ray or MRI DL spine will be advised if it shows vertebral collapse which is due to Potts spine which means tuberculosis of vertebral body with surrounding soft tissue inflammation which is clearly seen with MRI.  Usually, they need 18 months of antitubercular treatment, if they have weakness of legs surgical fixation may be needed. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
