Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Any lymphatic swelling arises unknowingly should raise the suspicious of the TB and should be biopsied.

There are many reason for swollen lymph nodes. Exact cause can only be known once the biopsy report came.

If the swelling is TB than appropriate anti TB treatment should be taken. Completing the treatment can cure you.

If the swelling has different etiology than clearing the etiology can cure the infection.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
