If it is retreatment TB then Therapy needs to be started. Inj streptomycin can cause hearing problems but need not to be worried. Not observed in all patients especially children and older adults are more affected. Anyway TB needs to be cured otherwise will become more complicated if left untreated. Take therapy under regular supervision. Thanks.
