Hello
As you mentioned that you are having enlarged lymph nodes on the side of neck in the cervical region . Doctor diagnose it is tubercular lyphadenopathy . Get in Montox'e as well tuberculin test.
When such patient visit my clinic I at once take some fluid or a portion of mass from enlarged nodes and after biopsy ( usually due to tuberculosis ) advise patient anti tubercular treatment for 6-9 months depending upon the condition of disease and symptoms .
Yes this is a 100 % curable disease and most common. But keep one thing in brain , never miss any drug as advised your physician .
Consult your physician till complete course.
Hope this will help you.
