Mycobacteria are a type of germ. There are many different kinds. The most common one causes tuberculosis. Another one causes leprosy. Still others cause infections that are called atypical mycobacterial infections. They aren't "typical" because they don't cause tuberculosis.

At other times, they can cause lung symptoms similar to tuberculosis:CoughWeight lossCoughing up blood or mucusWeakness or fatigueFever and chillsNight sweatsLack of appetite and weight lossMedicines can treat these infections, but often more than one is needed to cure the infection.
