Suggest Treatment For Nodules On The Neck
I have nodules around my neck, they used to hurt earlier however after taking medicines the pain has subsided, however I need to know what exactly these glands are made of and what needs to be done. I have gone through mantoux test and the chest x ray is clear and 3 different blood tests. Please advice

hi.
one possibility with those 'nodules' in your neck might be lymph nodes that get inflamed especially if you had a recent infection.. you could request for a neck ultrasound or a neck scan if you want to further evaluate those to rule out other possibilities. a consult with a surgeon is also recommended.
hope this helps.
good day!!
