Suggest Treatment For Lump On Back Of Neck

i can feel a lump on the back of my neck. Started experiencing it from a week back., Intially it was not of a noticebale size. Day b4 yesterday, it developed into a lump of noticebale size . Doctor examined and told me that there are two more. I am from India and now I am in Belgium. I need to travel back in two days. Doctor didn't prescribe any other medicine than paracetamol. I dont feel any reduction in the size of lump. May i Plz know, what could be the possible reason for the same?

HI,Welcome with your query to HCM.
Based on the facts of your query,you seem to need treatment for a infected Boil on the neck-could be a Carbuncle-as 2 more at the site.
To prevent it from complicating in to bigger abscess-I would suggest to -
Start Tab Ofloxacin 200 mgm x 2times per day/Tab Motrin 400 and check from GP there for a script and Second Opinion.
Blood Sugar testing for FBS(Fasting) and PPS(post meal)
Remedy-
Get second opinion from your Gp.
Tab Voltaren
Tab Oflox
GP's cover is a must.

Will appreciate writing your feedback review comments,to help the needy patients like you at HCM.

Good Day!!
