That is not a typical symptom. The largest symptom is coughing with bloody mucous discharge. You should also notice shortness of breath accompanied by fits of coughing. If you are really worried about it, get a tuberculin skin test; it's quick, easy, and is the standard test used in the US. If you don't have any of those symptoms though, I wouldn't be too worried as tuberculosis is relatively rare in humans in the US. Cases here are usually either contrated by people working with infected animals or occasionally health care professionals.

Ear popping when you swallow...worried about TB.....

Tuberculosis is a microorganism that is inhaled and takes up residence in the lung. The body, reacts to it by encapsulating it. When it becomes active, it spreads and the body encapuslates those affected areas. You may notice coughing fits, accompanied by shortness of breath, and bloody mucus. While infection rates are on the rise, it is mostly within the homeless community that it is spreading....
