There is a rapid increase in the geriatric population. In our nation, more than 5% of males and 4 to 5% of females belong to geriatric group. Although the proportion of elderly people in our nation compared with developing countries is on the lower side, the absolute number is on the higher side as compared with the developed world. Growing is a natural process for every being, hence geriatric stage cannot be prevented. However, a handful of things can be done by the family members of the elderly in helping them to lead a normal life, which is their uttermost necessity to perform their daily routine activities with ease. The commonest problem the elderly face is joint pain and diminished mobility. All the aspects of health status, lifestyle, life satisfaction, mental state, or well-being together reflect the multidimensional aspect of lifestyle of an individual. Mental health problems with the geriatric age people remain neglected most of the time. There is a different presentation of tuberculosis in older people as compared with that observed in young adult patients. There should be a separate classification of tuberculosis treatment for elderly people. Hence, diagnosis has to be made at the earliest and treatment not delayed, which, in the current scenario has led to a rise in morbidity and mortality in the geriatric group.
