Swollen Lymph Nodes, Tonsils, Acne. Taking Medicine For Thyroid Cyst. Caused By Roundworm?
Hi, I have had swollen lymph nodes, tonsils & acne (this is new as I am almost 40) since December. My Dr. Found 2the cysts on my thyroid &I put me on thyroid meds to keep them from growing. I just found out my dog has round worm &I that it can invade the lymphatic system &I cause cysts to encapsulate them as well. I will be tested for roundworm next week. If I have them, could this be causing all of the other symptoms &I what remedy do you recommend?
HI Thank for choosing HCM, Acne in age of 40 is out of question it must be something else, if it is thyroid cyst then in all of such cases the cyst has to be removed surgically, for round worm first go for stool examination, if you already done it, and it confirmed the infestation then take Albendazole tab. for dose discus it with your family doctor,, have nice day
