As long as its effect remains, a different energy is detected in the body. In this greed, the youth going to the gym start using it. Doctors say that the use of steroids should be avoided. Similarly, the use of protein should not be taken in large quantities. Protein can be used only on the advice of a doctor. In general, if the weight is 70 kg, then a maximum of 70 grams of protein in 24 hours can be beneficial.

It can spread to any part of the body. The symptoms of TB are similar to those of bronchitis, pneumonia, and lung cancer.

In such a situation, the use of steroid can not be easily treated as TB. Only after seeing the report of such cases can something be said.
