What Does An Infected Lump On The Neck Indicate?
There is a reoccurring pus filled lump appearing on my neck. I have done all the reports and they are normal with mild pulmonary prominence and fatty lung grade one. still waiting for my tissue culture report for TB. So what might be the reason for reoccurence of the lump as I have been operated already twice last year. Also i have been given medications for TB last year for 6 months though it was not detected.

* In our clinic, we recommend tissue culture and pus sensitivity reports with biopsy of scrapping material to find the root problem and treat.
